There’s quite a few, sadly all in the dark, I did see a small group of doe’s in the thick this afternoon, we are shooting this Saturday but I’m not planning on doing the ruff side of the piggeries where the deer are at the minute, so I’ll check the camera on Friday and if it looks good we can have a look out ?

Feeding today and there’s even more trees down than when I left on Saturday and there’s a few places I can’t get the quad to so Friday morning will be a chainsaw morning, the snow has all but gone and the birds have hammered the feeders while the snow was on the ground, I’m not only feeding pheasants but I’m also feeding Rudolph ? when I went through the ruff side of the piggeries I seen a white flash, stopping the bike there was 4 or 5 fallow doe’s about 15 yards from me, they do tend to winter where they were due to the warmth of the thick cover

My missus is an accountant for the NHS and the hole system is just a numbers game, ( a completely broken numbers game at that ) doctors don’t run hospitals, accountants do and once you start getting into management positions the wages and pensions are unbelievable compared to the private sector, I know there’s people there that genuinely want to make a difference but there’s also a lot of people in the NHS that are just there for the money/pension and job security, if you can afford private health care I’d strongly recommend it because it might not be there as it is now in a few years time -
Out early morning today to go to the sheep farm for the feral pigeons, now as my mate Mosh works there I thought I’d ask him if he wanted to come, since he had a heart attack a couple of years ago he’s only been to a few pheasant days and has never been out on a night with me ( we used to be out 3 times a week) so I was surprised when he said he’d like to come, when we got there it was cold and dry and there was between 40 and 50 pigeons around the building, so I went one side and mosh went the other, we managed about a dozen over a couple of hours with the shotguns, shooting a few and having

I decided to brave the weather and go and feed at first light this morning as I’ve got a farmyard feral pigeon smashing job on tomorrow morning, to say it was a bit wild would be a bit of an understatement, there’s a lot of tree damage and damage to the pens, I spent the first hour clearing fallen trees from the track in, so the old girl could get in and out, on the bright side there’s a lot of birds about this cold snowy weather has kept them in and they are hammering the feed, I’m definitely going to have to take the chainsaw with me on the next feed day as there’s quite a bit of the shoot I
