Rabbit needs the dentist

I went out shooting last night with my brother in law and 12 year old nephew. It's the third time they have come with me and until now my nepher has only managed 1 rabbit.

I started off with this buck tooth beautey.

 

I think I did it a favour as that looks quite uncomfortable.

 

We carried on driving around the edges of some wheat fields that have just been combined to come across a pair of buzzards on the ground in front of us. They stopped what they were doing and had a look then flew off. They were only 20 yards away from us. We found what was left of the meal, half a rabbit. We cleared off to leave them in peace and then a hare jumped up and bolted. It stopped for a quick look over it's shoulder about 80 yards away, just enough time for a 20grain .17hmr to the head. It dropped like a stone before being put in the back of the truck and bleeding everywhere :)

 

When it got dark we carried on around the fields and finished up with 20 rabbits and the hare, my nephew bagging 9 of them. He was very pleased and it's nice to see him comming on and learning a little bit of field craft.
