Popped up the farm on the way home from work this afternoon to see if there were any woodys about.

 

All the rape has been cut now and there were a fare few pigeons on the stubble :good:

 

Iv planned to have a day up there on Sunday, but could not resist having a few hours this afternoon :D

 

I went home grabbed the musket, cartridges, hide and a rotary and went back to the farm.

 

 

I was set up, with my hide up along a hedge near to the middle of the field, by 17.00, I had no decoys with me, so I just stood back behind the hide and waited!! ........ the first pair were down in minutes, so I set the rotary up, 15 yrds out and 10 yards off to my right.

 

Most of the birds went and sat up the other end of the farm after shooting the first 2 birds, but for the next 2 1/2 hours, small groups came trickling back :good:

 

The shooting dried up by 19.30 so I packed up.

 

Ended up with 68, lost 11 in the pit behind me.

 

All in all, a very enjoyable afternoon, just hope the rain holds off for Sundays trip out :good:
