hi lads

 

second trip out of the weekend produced two more lovely foxes.

 

the first fox was taken in the light late evening as i forgot my binos i was looking around using the rifle scope and spotted him at the edge of the field sniffing about. i lay down watching him in the scope with my caller in my mouth a sharp blast of the call had his attention he looked right in my direction and became fixed on the sound he was a good 300 yards away and was coming in nicely i ended up taking the shot an no more than 50 yards out with a shout he stood still and down he went a nice dog fox

second fox was i bit of a surprise i sat there calling for 10min or so switched the lamp on and wow he was 10 yards out bit of a shock for both of us he turned tail and bolted i got into potion to watch him make the end of the field and carry on but then he did something daft he stopped and made that fetal look back i quickly got a shot of and heard the crunch of a head shot he was definatley down .. pic a bit of a mess so sorry if it offends

unfortunately i did get a third fox but he was on the edge of very think bramble cover and made it in. the shot was not spot on but he was down i could see his tail about 6 foot in but the cover was just too much to tackle the other two joined him to keep the bodies out of sight ..
a cracking weekend lets hope we get more of this sun stuff.
thanks andy

Hope that new cars still going good for ya im still searching for one at the moment.
