  2. Looking for a pup

    in Earthdogs & Working Terriers

    Posted

    Not the best time of year really but im looking for a bitch pup. Not bothered by what type aslong as its from good honest digging stock. The pup i was getting unfortunatly died and i was offered a dog instead by a good bloke from the fourms, but i can only keep bitches at home. Sensible prices and preferably down south somewhere.

     

    Cheers!

    wouuld have been a sika around your area. You see them quite regular feeding right by the side of the dual carrage way as you get to Dorchester. Where abouts were the goshawks?! Ive only heard of them being around the new forest way

    nice, im very envious of you oldnog. I took the FGASA (field guide association of southern africa) level one course in south africa, last year, just out side of kruger it was great fun, plenty to point a camera at over there. Where are you heading?

     

    ATB

     

    Thats the course my mate did, he did his level 2 though and is working on his level 3 i think. We are going to spend the first week or so traveling around the farms he runs his photography coruses from, mainly around the waterberg area and hoedspruit. He knows some people that will let us shoot some baboons which are pretty much taking over the farm and for a few rand shoot an impala. The last part we are renting a lodge in Marloth Park right along side Crocodile river and spending alot of time in and around Kruger.

     

    I literally cannot wait. When i met my mate he hand not long nmoved here from Zimbabwe and told me i would end up going to africa with him at some point and he wasnt wrong haha

    Im off to South Africa for 3 weeks in september. My best mate isa fulled trained guide and runs his own wildlife photography business out there, so i get the whole 'safari' experience away from the tourist trail and also visiting a few places that arent open to the public such as a nursery for orphaned lion cubs. Plenty of time for photography, fishing and a bit of shooitng.

     

    Nice pics!

  18. Roe Buck

    in Wildlife and General Photography

    Posted · Edited by OldNog

    Took these photos of a roe buck on the shoot my brother is the keeper on. I had to stalk about 200yrds down a noisey stoney track, then crawl on my belly for 50 odd yrds to get that bit closer. He realised something wasnt right so bolted into the field about 30yrds. He then started barking and trying to scent me, but couldnt as the wind was in my favor so started walking closer until he had enough and slowly trotted off. Whilst stalking him a hare ran towards me and a sparrowhawk flew right over me aswell!

    Iv been trying to get some good snaps of a nice roe buck i manged to photograph a few weeks ago, and this evening i managed to get close enough for a few decent snaps. Had to belly craw for about 50yards again....got within 30 yards and they got a bit jumpy and ran off another 40 yeards or so. With a bit more crawling i got close enough again.

     

    Still new to photoagraphy and my camera so im sure they could be a lot better.
