Flanker Posted August 31, 2008 Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 Out this afternoon on wheat cut mid-week. Strange thing was, birds not interested at all but going straight in on a rape field cut 4 weeks ago just up from the farm. Even after the occasional shot at a high bird, the 'flock' were straight back in on the old rape stubble. The seed that is left has germinated so are the wooddies keen on this or is that just the way it is and what was on the menu for today? :yp: Any thoughts guys?
