A few hours decoying

Popped out for a few hours decoying this afternoon.

 

Started off with just 15 flocked decoys spaced out randomly. A few birds slowed down to have a look but nothing came in.

Got the Hyper-flaps out on the rotary which didn't seem to have any affect either, even after re-positioning it 4 -5 times :lol:

 

By this time Portsmouth's entire feral pigeon population decided to start throwing themselves at the decoys. Despite shooting at a few of them, they were not bothered one little bit by the sound of gun shot. Some were even walking about 15yards from the hide as I was shooting, but still going about their business :lol:

 

After an hour or so I had a few woody's in the bag so decided to pack the rotary away to give the bouncers and flapper a go ................ bingo :lol: ..... the woodys started to commit to the decoys.

 

The only downside was, I had to be home for 16.00, so I had to pack up at 15.30 just as the woody's were starting to playing ball :lol:

**** law eh, might try next weekend :lol:

 

Managed 15 woody's and 14 ferals, could have had a absolute blood bath with the ferals but as they were almost in the hide with me at times, I only shot a few which were high up or presented a sporting shot, didn't really want to waste my cartridges either.
