leegreen 2,251 Posted October 7, 2009 Report Share Posted October 7, 2009 I,ve about four times in the last week tues to tues and the has been abit of prob the dogs seem to hunt up alot with been lite.even when we had afew days heavy wind the prey can still you coming.how long does the full moon last for i thought about aweek but out last night and still lite up.still catching but not the things i,d like to be,because of the lite You can put the Moon phases up on your Google home page, tells you when it coming, where it's at and when it's on its way out, job done. I often walk around the local orchards when full Moon, keeps my dogs sharp, although a bit dodgy but they have always gone there for years. Quote Link to post
