bunny_blaster Posted September 27, 2016 Report Share Posted September 27, 2016 I had a call last week from one of the farmers I shoot for. He had been to some of his ground and seen "loads" of pigeons on his stubble turnips. I said Id have a look at the weekend and when Saturday came I headed there and sat and watched for 20 mins. About 20 birds lifted from the field and didn't return. I carried on looking and found very little else where. After an hour I returned to the turnips thinking I'd set up to keep the farmer happy and drove down the edge of the field, to my surprise 100+ pigeons lifted out the trees so I set up in a ditch with the wind off my back. The birds returned well and I had a good few hours shooting but it quickly tailed off. I picked up and had 98 birds so I ran the dogs out again and found another 2 to make the 100. I text the farmer to let him know and he was over the moon. Cheers Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kippylawkid Posted September 28, 2016 Report Share Posted September 28, 2016 Nice one. It's good to hear there's at least one farmer who can spot a decent day! I think we all know a few who are prone to exaggeration! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
