A productive mooch

[pest hunter 151 15]

Hi fellow airguner's I went out for a mooch around my permition just a fue hours ago for a bit of erly dusk shooting. I got out my old man's car and popped in to tell the farmer i was there. After that i went down into the newly cut field and lay in wait for some woodys. After half hour of being there i herd an unmistakable sound! A WOODY had landed i pulled my tx200hc up to my shoulder, hovered the cross hairs 5 mill over the pigeon who sat 40 yards away. BANG But instead of seeing a pigeon drop and spread its wings it jumpped into the air, spiraled and then dropped to the floor. I went up to check the pigeon was dead (it was!). How funny? Any way i desided to take a walk and came accros a maggpie at 18 yard. I took aim but by the time i had settled my breathing it took flight I reterned to my bag were i had left the pigeon. It had gone!!!! so no pic of the pigeon sorry. Im just tring to work out what took my pigeon, fox or red kite maby but eather way it pissed me off.

 

 

Thanks PH1

Nah missing is what ruins a day, blanking really ruins it ten fold

 

I had a fox grab a kit last year, as soon as it went over, foxy jumped into the cemetery, grabbed the kit and legged it!

 

Cheeky lil git, but I din't mind as it was a really nice sight to see
