Finally caught Magpies in the Larsen,


Recommended Posts

Only been trying for the past three months, must be the weather.

The trap was in a regular place using a skinned squirrel as bait, is this the time of year when this years brood has fledged and is looking for new territory so they are stupid?

Actually caught three with a fourth hopping around outside. temped to get the rimfire out for it.

Anyone want a call bird in South Glos? One is probably going to a farmer.

I had tried everything; Fake nest, cat food, rabbit, pigeon, nothing worked, until today.
