Thought i would show you all this Rook i shot yesterday evening,i went out in the wind and rain to my nearest permission(abt 1 mile away)which is heavly wooded and on the basis of shooting a pigeon or 2,after an hour and having not seen or heard anything i decided to call it a night,i started strolling back to the car when a dark shadow came overhead along with what i would call aggresive squawking,as i got closer to the edge of the wood i could see some black silouettes in the fading light,perched on some trees bordering the field,i crept towards them taking my time,i got within 30 yards when i could see the unfortunate chap below sitting out on a branch squawking his gut out!!Anyway,i hit him through the heart and lungs and he dropped like a stone.
