An Afternoon in the Copse

After a hard week at work and little sport been had, I made plans with Kes (pw member ) to have a afternoon on a peice of land with a nice copse area in the midde of a wheat field, that had showed plenty of birds this last week when i had been driving past. Met Phil and got down there about 2ish and on arrival we weren't disapointed on getting to the gate to the field approximatley 150 plus birds lifted off the top of the copse, both our eyes lit up with eager anticipation.

 

so we got set up on the edge of the copse and waited until they had decided it was safe to return, they duly obliged slowly and surely presenting us with some tough sporting shots but Phil was on form and bagged the first few at good distance. the rotary seemed to be holding them back at distance so it came down and the sport picked up sometimes from all directions and large numbers too.

 

 

it got manic around the 6pm mark with birds everywhere from all directions and different heights some really high taken above our heads through the trees and some directly at us ike stealth bombers lol. In the end we ended with 35 picked with 16 we had to leave out in the crops save damaging them anymore than they already are.

 

a few pics below from today
