yickdaz Posted June 3, 2023 Report Share Posted June 3, 2023 Went out this afternoon looking for birds on clover no spring rape or peas grown at all in the areas we shoot so have limited options this time of year, the grass hadn't been cut and was waist heigh 2 spring drilling nearby 3 inch high with a lot of weed growth in it they were going on that but not in huge numbers and not a great flightline into them but gave it a go anyway very slow going shot 34 in 3 hrs 2.30 till 5.30 picked 30 as the title says better than nothing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't had much to report shot next to nothing on rape all winter, spring drilling didn't produce much a few small days on the crows and pigeons they just haven't been around for the last 8 months Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This last two weeks we are seeing more and more , not big numbers but enough to pass the time away on a warm Summers afternoon . Well done on your recent bag , very good in the short time you were shooting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See some on the Facebook group shooting big bags constantly so they’re obviously in certain places…..Lincolnshire seems to have a glut of pigeons! Well done on your 34 though, that’s a nice little bag to keep you going for a few hours (I’d settle for that at the moment) 👍🏼 Edited June 5, 2023 by Wilts#Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
