I had one this week, hit it smack through the ribs at about 10 paces and it still managed to run 15yrds and got five foot up a tree trunk before it ran out of fuel. I whacked a second time before it let go to make sure. As I have said many times, they are tough little boogers. I had one which I did think I had missed yesterday, this morning. No mistake this time. A big Momma tree rat fat as butter. 2229 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the time you have got through it could have crawled anywhere. I don't count them unless I find them dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It "winds me up" when I can't find them though. But then again if it was easy it would be boring 😴🙄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fisheruk Posted September 10, 2021 Report Share Posted September 10, 2021 Well after a long wet wait in the wood this morning, hearing a couple of squirrels calling and moving through the canopy, cascading showers of rain drips as they went. Then at 9.00am one comes along the ground and up onto a feeder. A large male. 2237 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
