islandgun Posted February 10, 2016 Report Share Posted February 10, 2016 A lovely afternoon for a walkabout with the 410, no sporting finesse just a peer over the sand bank, got four before they got back to the burrow but lost one, Sid the Terrier managed to subdue one before it got its second wind, The 410 is a folding C&H, I should have the 20 bore this week which will complete my collection hope the photos do the area justice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

islandgun Posted February 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2016 What a **** veiw I tried to increase the size of the photo but no luck, I have permission for rabbits and geese over a lot of the island, the estuary in the picture is shallow with hard sand nothing like you own estuaries in Essex where incidently I spent most of my youth, anyone notice the widgeon in the creek Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenergp Posted February 13, 2016 Report Share Posted February 13, 2016 Nice pics, i am not sure what island you are on, but i used to shoot out in the Western isles 35 years ago, one of my best days was out behind the co-op in Creagorry at the sea pools, where i got some Widgeon, my mates dog wouldnt go out and get them, so i had to strip off and go out up to my armpits in January it was bloody freezing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
