Ok so yesteurday we had the chance for another go at the pigeons in the sun, during the week we noticed that they were feeding on one of the bottom fields now the clover is coming through, Drove up for lunch time start, again hot and bright sunshine, had a drive around to see if the same flight lines were in operation and found the resident population of hares were enjoying the sunshine

Now I enjoy watching the hares, for some reason they always make me smile so we dont shoot them and they seem to do quite well on this property. This one thought it was invisable in the grass and let us drive up to about 20 feet before he wandered off

looked good in her summer coat.

 

at the end of the day we had 30 pigeon, The only problem we had was that behind us was a very steep drop into a small ravine, it was overgrown with some nasty nettles etc and we just couldnt get in there to pick up a few that had gone on over the top of us

As ther was no wind and it was sunny we were pleased.

Had seen a load of wildlife and had a great day out, enjoyed the fry up and a brew as well

Stayed out for a fox but didnt see any

cheers doc
