Another Day Out

Picked up DB as usual and headed out on our search. We started at the field we shot last week only to find that it had been re seeded and rolled with not a bird around. We decided to look for some good runs of oak trees as we think the birds are on the acorns. We then picked up on a very strong flight line which went to a newly seeded field. We contacted the owner and his wife said that her husband was in a meeting allday and she could not give us the O.K. So plan B we went to the farm next door and gained permision to shoot the flight line which ran down a narrow stream bed with lots of mature willows this gave us some very good high shots. We didn't decoy just shot the line and picked up 181 at the end of the day.

 

So today we set out in the same direction to see if we could shoot the actual seed field only to find zero birds. we then ended up driving forty plus miles not seeing a bird . We found some birds in an oak wood next to a field which was being drilled. We decided to split and I set up on the field and DB went into the wood we shot till dark and ended up with 59. I had 29 on the seed and some crows I took a picture with my phone and will try to dowload it. It just goes to show that some days it like chalk and cheese but I'm always grateful for any shooting.
