kentishsteve Posted August 13, 2009 Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 woke up this mornoing to a downpoor so decided not to go into work and to go for a wander with my air rifle around the dairy where i have permission, there are often a lot of pigeons around the barns and cattle sheds and a plenty of rabbits in the fields. I arrived at about 11 oclock and after a 30 min walk round had only seen 1 rabbit so i wandered over to a place where i know the wood pigeons congregate, it is a row of tall conifers about 300 yds long and when i arrived it was teeming with woodies but only a few were visible the rest were deep into the safety of the confers, i found a place to sit and wait behind a tree a 10 mins later was rewarded with a nice woodie. Next i moved to the farm yard and walked into a barn i knew was always populated with ferals and sure enough i had one in the bag on my arrival, i then hid behind a straw bale and waited for another to fly in and perch on the roof trusses which i dispatched with a shot slap bang in the forehead, i decided to head back to the van to get some lunch and on the way dropped another feral on top of the calving shed, 4 in the bag. After a sandwich a wlked along the edge of 1 of the fields and spotted a rabbit grazing on the edge and cleanly dispatched him with a shot to the head, all in all an enjoyable few hours beats work any day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
