looks nice , get many foxes round there with the rabbits you got .?

[leethedog 3,071]

A fair few mate but a fair few midnight cowboys with lamps to . Where I live is mostly marsh land and foxes don't spend much time to ground

That looks nice lee,much wildlife there,I expect being marsh there would be plenty of native reptiles there.

No bunny bashing but it will just be pretty much the same old same old here with me & my team,probably have the odd day at a Gamefair up & down the land,got a few "mini" breaks planned for myself & Ruby the Pom lol,and one or two punk gigs & festivals to attend..the lurchers can just get fat & enjoy the summer break but they will still be out daily on the beach,hiking the fells but at a more leisurely pace & only where we won't encounter any wildlife that may interest the mutts..have a good un folks whatever your plans are?

I've got a couple of bunny spots local that I will leave alone over the summer and a few spots with decent hare numbers which I will leave alone until winter time.

 

The ferrets won't see any action until winter now, I'm going to knock them a decent outside run area up to keep them occupied over the summer. A few logs and piles of dirt etc to play about in and stop them from getting bored.

 

Apart from that I will be out mooching every day as normal. I will still give the youngster a couple of nights on the lamp (only 2-3 nights over the summer) where rabbits are in abundance just to continue her "learning curve" ready for a few proper nights lamping in September/October.

 

I plan to get a few nights fishing in and a few days on the trout too. Maybe do a bit with the air rifle to keep the freezer topped up for the ferrets, although my Plummer has been doing a pretty good job of that, she bags something most outings.

 

And on top of that plenty of cycling as I'm doing Lands End to John O'Groats next year.

You'll need to build up your saddle tolerance. Me and the missus when cycling up whinlatter for 3 hours before lambing time and jesus my arse was sore the next day. I think i will stick to the running and walking from now on.

Haha I know the feeling, done 60 mile this morning and can't sit down now ?

Getting out with the dog,doing a bit of target practice with the air rifle ready for next year and maybe bringing on a pup but generally enjoying being out without multiple layers on.

Summer time is to get that money in..lots if hours.no time for much fun but keeps be out of work come winter. Poach some trout,enjoy time with the kids and mooch on as normal.

Been trying to walk mine in areas he won't mark as I hate not rewarding a mark at this stage with a bolt. Been messing around any bushes with a net and to keep the dog occupied. Take him fishing and down the allotment and training little bits. Just took him for a few miles on the bike.

Been doing a bit of pigeon shooting with him as well but now every time he sees a pigeon he thinks we need to do some thing

The dog will be getting plenty of hill walking and swimming.
