    Cuckoo

    I’ve studied cuckoos for years and I’m still at it. Often call the males in which come at first but after a few times don’t bother. I think they must be immature birds. Watched two on Sunday actually mating so I’ve a female laying in my patch. Last year lucky enough to watch one laying in a meadow pipits nest, which was a fantastic thing to watch. She was down on the heather for 2 hours, sat still, weighing everything up. Then she fluttered a few yards, dived into the grass, searched, found and layed. I could sit for hours watching them
  2. I was gifted 600 of these and just returned from zeroing. Very nice round, and quiet as well. Good grouping at 50 yds ? prior to these I’m using Remington

    RIP

    Good bit of trick camera work there. The container with maggots in was in two halfs and he picked up something that looked like real maggots ? and he didn’t eat a hamster ffs. But he was very funny, loved him.
  6. Build your own and on the large size as well. A lot of these ready -to-set traps are too small. You might get one every now and then in them but it’ll be hard work. I’ve got one on a farm, I had it made by a friend and it never fails.

    The irony

    It’s not what badgers eat that’s the problem, it’s the number of badgers versus the number of hedgehogs, the number of leverets ground nesting birds, wild bee colonies etc. They just outnumber everything in the countryside but in cull areas there is a reverse in figures. Even the RSPB and others try and offer protection for other wildlife against badgers without culling them by building high fence lines around areas with ground nesting birds

    The irony

    All he’s doing is helping those orphaned or injured hogs to survive, which is a good thing but then he’s releasing them to be eaten by old brock, so he’s not saving them. The badger cull us doing more for hogs, numbers are up where the cull had taken place ?
