One from today , just a pic i like for no special reason , just a day to reflect with an uncertain future up here

Got one myself, can't fault him 18 month now 25tts. Got him at 6 weeks easiest dog iv ever had to bring on, real pleasure to own,had a cracking season with him.

My local barn owl

Had today of work , after cleaning the van out and getting it ready for next weeks work ,so really 1/2 day off . So decided to go squirrel shooting on this lovely sunny day and plenty running around the tree tops . All shots taken with .22 FAC FX crown free hand shooting into treetops

Yes mate spot on for me, reckon the old pre ban days we would have had plenty fun on the old muntys, oh well........

The demise started the minute the stupid c,nt tony blair and the immigration loving labour party brought in the hunting with dogs ban back in 2004, 14 years of rifle persecution is going to be hard for any species of animal to take, they never thought of the damage they was about to inflict on Charlie, Persecution will happen all year round that's because a lot of foxes are shot on stubbles and hard ground because theres a lot shooters very rarely leave the vehicle they are in don't want to get dirty I presume do Charlie a favour and stick to your x box games

Corbyn is a Weasely little Steptoe looking dweeb,refusing to go to No 10 to chat with May?This isn't about him personally sulking like a brat,this is about his Job,and his job is to do whats the best for the people,that includes meetings when the head honcho summons him.

Been there done that mate stick to your guns they will back down .me and a few lads decided to pull year's of rubbish from our local burn and were told we would be prosecuted for fly tipping ! .we made it our duty to inform Joe public of councils intentions and social media got the better of them and they ended up on board .

It’s twigs sticks and moss ffs you bunch of girls all things you would find in the woods anyway he,s just rearranged them to suit the animals a bit more, no wonder were all f****d over constantly with so many spineless so called men in among us, stick a high viz vest and a clip board on a monkey and you,d follow it, easy to see how so many our constantly f****d over by so few ??

I ca!led him months ago ,if he goes ,don't try claiming him

My God there's some sheep on here all rollover on yer backs for the council this is why the country is fucke d everyone rolls over and let's them control of everyone pulled together see be stronger and have more of a say. Look at what we pay in taxes and what gets done to benefit us.... NOTHING. Look at fuel prices all it takes is everyone to not use a car for a week they'd soon put prices down look at the state of a lot of council ground most of it gets left the man's tried doing something the council should be doing anyway I personally dont see a problem with what he's done its not cost the

Shovel shy that's what makes our sport a better form of fox control the best foxes get away,,I look at it like this if hounds have had a good run and he gets away good luck to him,l just don't let farmer know.give him best .

No one is saying don’t challenge it, nor has it been mentioned he should run off, I think the general consensus is he has done a good thing, but gone about it in the wrong way. Get the council on side, I think it’s a great idea, but you can’t just go round building shit on land you don’t own as you feel like it, can’t even do what you like on land you do own for that matter. If someone did similiar on my land it would be ripped down out of principle, if they approached me and asked if they could do it not only would I likely say yes, but I would most likely give them as much help as

The labour party have said its a national crisis....yet its obvious they aren't try to help but to destroy government. Surely to attack government in a national crisis is almost treason. The Labour policy on brexit is to 'address the anger which led to brexit' Labour want to negotiate a better brexit yet the only thing the will say is they want to stay in the customs union. That's even less of a brexit ?. Its like going to renegotiate a car price and giving giving the dealer £1000 more

I'm not following this but unless you have permission you have no right to erect or make anything on a Nature Reserve, the Council (or any owner) can't possibly let anyone who wants to just come on and start building their own creations! Why didn't you get permission? I'm sure your actions were well intentioned but I regret to say I see the Councils point of view!

He was there to train the terrorists?

Got a quick glimpse of an otter on this stream this afternoon, no chance of a pic though

Went to a local farm this morning to see if any ferals had come back as i have almost cleared them, odd couple come in for a feed now and i dropped lucky that i was there this morning, seen about 10 and a good few collards, got 7 ferals and 2 collards, farmer came across to me to see what id got and he was happy, he said he sees hardly any now. Got ferals off that roof and collards in the big tree.

Absolutely gutted - 5 months ago I started working on a wildlife/bird feeding station at my local “nature reserve” in a quiet and discrete area away from the well used tracks, using all resources and materials collected from the reserve itself (felled logs, moss, broken branches and twigs). Since September I’ve been buying bird and squirrel food and visiting every day since filling feeders and keeping the area tidy. I have now had a phone call and meeting with Northumberland Council who have informed me that I have no permission to hang bird feeders, put up nest boxes, erect or build perches a

well I think it's quiet that's all that really matters to me, just voicing my opinion I know it's not a 2 grand supergun but it'll do me bsasuperten

Twin brothers,one collects rubbish,one spouts it ?

No I don’t keep count Bob, just a few today the ground was frozen up north but it’s a long way to go to not have a few runs so I got away with a couple of hours bolting to the grew, cheers mate?

5 SA80s mate

No it does,nt cover it at all, challenge the council and ignore the great advice given here by a bunch of fanny,s, it would cost more to move it all than just start again, but that still does not mean you have to bend down and take it up the arse just because the big bully from the council told you to, you have done a selfless act to enhance the area for everyone else’s pleasure and should be praised for it not run off with your tail between your legs like some of these lot here, go through a proper appeal process and use social media to gain momentum and support, if we never challenged things

The breasts might be quite meaty but there ain't a lot of meat on the legs. ? Could be a bit of a tough ole bird.

That was nearly 10yrs ago mate I heard a rumour that he's sorted now

Cost to much?? slightly off topic any one see Ben fogle show about couple an their daughters living in Canada ? The young girls were operating a bob cat and milling timber etc

Lol they are no different whatsoever to anyone. That is just what they do. killing machines?! Lol if a lad on a building site , becomes the go to guy for levelling off a driveway or a doctor becomes a triage expert , they are regarded as the best in their trade. Thats all the blades are. The best in their trade.

Tomo my dogs aren’t show collies lol kc registered lol isds registered yes, I don’t require a dog with loads of greyhound in them times have changed and are changing with the type of dogs people are keeping and working a lot of lads I know are going to mooching types especially lads who used to go coursing. Regards Collie John

i agree with lots of stuff you say bill...but not the above a pure collie wont surfice in the dales or anywhere else....not when it comes to actualy catching rabbits out in the open on a run.....yes they will catch ods and sods and around or in bits of cover...mark holes and be good all round hunting companion......but a pure collie wont put numbers in the bag from running rabbits

Come on now lads let’s all get on it’s just a bit of banter let’s get some good picks up and put all the slagging behind ?????

They are refugees who were lucky enough to be able to flee Liverpool in search of a better life.

What time is it on +2 Tomo?

I love sorry loved doin munty wi bushers an lurchers av ad some excellent times in pursuit of 't little f****rs an they taste beautiful ?

Vixens will pull out several earths but only use one this time of year in preperation if she had to move cubs. I've been there done that thinkin there was going to be foxes in each one. I find this time of year that a live looking earth doesn't mean it's live. I also find that when you eventually find a litter it's usually in a spot that is well away from major badger setts that you could dig adult foxes in all year round. Normally old quiet earths or widened up rabbit burrows in hedges running away from badger activity. They will return to large burrows when strong enough. I've also seen this

It's not old brick causing a drop in the fox population it's rifle lads shooting them week In week out,foxes have one litter a year how can any animal stand such relentless persecution, there to stupid to understand their going to ruin their own sport not that I would call sport by shooting foxes that can't even tell you are there, thermal night vision.

hi Zini thats a nice offer that buddy shame im down south but would like to add "AS HIGHLITED ABOVE" police shooting a fox with a rimfire, is that the preferred caliber for that type of vermin?????????? just a thought regards davy
