Frenchieboy Posted July 22, 2010 Report Share Posted July 22, 2010 (edited) I had a walk about yesterday evening in search of Charlie. On one side of the farm I shot a couple of rabbits to peg out where I wanted to call Charlie on the other side of the farm so that the bunny shooting didn't disturb Charlie if he was about! Even though I had decided not to shoot any in this area this evening I was sorely tempted and if you listen carefully you hear the safety catch come off a few times, especially at 1:01 where there was a classic 2 rabbits for 1 shot on offer - Good God am I going soft in my old age or what? I have in the past shot a hell of a lot of rabbits here but on seeing this it makes me wonder where they all come from! At least they are now nearly pot sized as I shoot these for sport rather than as a Vermin Control Exercise where the size would not make any difference so in just a few weeks time each of these will be worth £1.00 each to me if they are head shot - Sounds like a job for the lamp to me as I have a young lad who wants me to "teach him the ropes"! name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src=" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>"> name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src=" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="480" height="385"> Edited July 22, 2010 by Frenchieboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frenchieboy Posted July 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 great footage,,sometimes its good to observe rather than shoot... Thank you, that is so true about spending time observing. When I was a youngster (A great many years ago, possible more than I would like to admit to) down on the Cotswolds it was rare that you would find me out playing footy or cricket with the other "lads from the village". I prefered to spend my spare "leisure" time hidden away in a hedge or leaning against a big old oak tree studying the wildlife - I believe it was a great priveledge to have had that opportunity as a youngster and I learned an awful lot from it that has stood me in good stead throughout the years!
