Evening on rape stuble

[Flanker]

Having read many reports of birds feeding into early evening and beyond, decided to arrive mid-afternoon and see what was about on week old rape stubble. On arrival (3:30pm) big group, 200+ lifted and very encouraged to see them move further down the field and into one next door. Set up about 4pm on what has been a good flight line last week and had a steady stream until about 7:30 when got a bit chilly though birds still moving about. Shot 28 but could have shot 20+ more ferrels.

 

Though they did come into the deecs, the number moving was vast, more that I've seen earlier in the day - including lots and lots of ferrels.

 

Anyone el se having much luck later in the afternoon/evening?
