amateur Posted January 13 Report Share Posted January 13 (edited) 10 hours ago, Fisheruk said: Not a particularly good photo, because of very poor light. I was sat watching this Red enjoying its free meal for at least 20 minutes. Last Friday the woodland owner sent me a message to say she had seen a grey in this wood. After watching the Red for a while it moved off and a few minutes later I was scanning the canopy with the thermal and I spotted a grey squirrel about 35-40 metres away eating larch cones off the canopy behind the Hemlock which has the feeder fixed to it. I watched it for a while until it presented itself with a safe clear shot. I released a single pellet and it dropped into the undergrowth. Moving forward from the hide I found it stone dead having dropped through a rhododendron bush. I don’t think I would have ever located it without the thermal. A 560 grams female won’t be breeding. Excellent! Edited January 13 by amateur Superfluous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mullard picked up the 37 and added 1 to it and you have subsequently added 6. Did your friend shoot 2 or not, or are these included in the 6?

JKD Posted January 15 Report Share Posted January 15 (edited) So to clear this up,,,, at the end of page one, the total is 39. Top of this page is where some confusion sets in due to an edited post quoting 37, then Mullard adds 1 to that, making 38, where it should be 40. So the actual total is 46. Unless the actual figure got muddled up around the 37 point, which does make it 44 🤦♂️ signed, S. HOLMES 🧐 phew 🥳 😇 Edited January 15 by JKD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only question is whether or not the "friend's 2" on 13/01/25 was included in Fisheruk's 14/01/25. Easy, really It's all his fault for putting pretty pictures on the count thread 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
