We've got three oaks down now nigel , im hoping to get some good usable wood from them for little projects.

I was hoping to get one of them taken care of today , but the weather changed our plans.

Very pleasant Mel.:good:

Cheers dave , it was lovely yesterday ,but the torrential rain started at 1 am ish , so we made our way home this morning, we left a swamp behind. 

It must have gotten a bit windy in the week, because the roof has been ripped from the toilet/shower tent 😆

Excellent Mel. It's a shame we couldn't meet up (again) today, the weather beat us once more. Hopefully in the not too distant future, it will happen.

Im not normally one to be put off by the weather ,but it had me beat today mate . I'm sure we'll get something sorted soon 👍.

We've had a trail cam running since we got the woodland we've only caught one clip of a fox ,and one clip that we think was a badger , we do have a couple of squirrels that pop up now and again , and lots of woodland birds , the main footage though ,is the farmers sheep from next door , and loads of pheasants from the local shoot.

hello, how long is the drive to your wood Mel ?, it was something i thought to buy years ago but never did, had  chance of a nice stretch of trout river to, lots of possibilities mel , log cabin/open fire/ stream water, oh heaven for us country loving folk  

We take 2.5 hours getting there ,but I could easily do it in under two hours.

We had the chance to buy a great piece of woodland on the river avon , it had mooring and fishing rights , I absolutely loved it , unfortunately it also had eastern Europeans destroying the piece of public land next door , it would have been a constant fight to keep them out 😕.

For the life of me I can't remember, I know that it was next to a piece of public land ,and had a permanent travellers camp about half a mile away.

So free pheasant, and get a feeder up and sort those squirrels.

i did take a few squirrel traps this weekend , but we got rained off and didnt get chance to set them,  theyll probably be more fun with an airgun anyway.

ive heard rumours that the local shoot put massive amounts of birds down , but as tempting as it might be , it wouldnt really be right to shoot birds that have been paid for by someone else , but , in years to come , i might put a few birds down myself , mainly so that mates can pop up and shoot a few.
