    Just trying to keep a few back for clients mate .Plenty more bookings just that I won’t personally shoot anything else unless it’s a nice gold for the wall .Better clients see a few and I tell them which than walking miles and having to shoot the only one we see . Id much rather guide than shoot these days Mark .

    Fair play to him I say .Who the f**k would want to be associated with the cretins we have in power at the moment and that includes the shadow cabinet. Two fingers up to the lot of them and off on hols .

    Watched one way up in a hedge last night with the thermal .Amazed at the places they search for food tbh. Started off watching a muntie then ghosts moths in their dance then the mouse .Could have been a harvest I guess .There’s an ongoing study here on harvest mice .

    Do you reckon it was a young bird Paul .They learn very fast from what I’ve seen and become very lazy if they make it til winter .

    Nice mate .As an inexperienced falconer many moons ago I used to exercise the Harris hawk all year round instead of putting him up to moult and you’ve guessed it ,he flew into a rookery where carnage ensued .Had his brancher and ate what he wanted and was ready to come down 6 hours later .The rooks had a mad flurry to start with but when he’d eaten his fill and was rested they left him to one end apart from odd fly over .The bird was almost bomb proof and wanted corvids with a passion from that day til I sold him .Did a lot in building near Bristol where jackdaws were shut in at night .Lampi

    Had a forum member down for a stalk last eve .Too much grass cut for my liking tbh honest but we pressed on until I found the right field for a wait .I know this ground like the back of my hand .If they ain’t out when the shadows are longest it’s time for a stalk before dark . A muntie buck with a huge pair of in velvet antlers came our way but disappeared in the hedge before a shot could be lined up.Grass here is still uncut mind . As the shadows lengthened we wandered on a bit to the next field and sure enough there was a doe and yearly pricket out in the grass picking at seeds .Ne

    That’s still more than you first thought though mate . Another birding forum mention unconfirmed breeding of 37 pairs in Scotland breeding as a colony but just hearsay Id say .
