Woodcock this weekend

Went out for a quick hour or 2 myself at the weekend to do a few rough patches that normally holds an odd Woodcock. I ended up shooting 4 woodcock and 1 magpie. I must have flushed about 12 Woodcock but only got shooting at the 4 birds, if I had of had another person with me the bag could have been double. There seems to be a few birds in now after the snow on Thursday and Friday.

Good man Ollie. Well done again. That area looks really familiar. Looks like it would be good round the full moon with the birds just arriving across the sea. Do you find them tired or reluctant to fly long distance at all?

Yeh we get a lot of birds just arriving across the sea; in fact when I was out I saw a flight of 15 Swans coming across the sea. Sometimes I'll flush a bird or 2 which is reluctant to fly but you just have to use your disgression and let it go.

Thanks mate :lol: . She was just moving while I took the pic. Also she wasn't very tired, I think she was getting sick of me trying to get a pic of her :yes:

 

I would agree ollie, she's a proper spaniel in great condition - hours of hunting left in her ;)

 

Good shooting mate.
