(here we go that time of year again )so needs must i arrived about 11am and started to get set up long nets down little lurcher waiting shotgun at the ready first large warren 2 in the net this bank i normally ferret while 2 others shoot but single handed today i left the first half alone as i could not do it by myself and did the middle the end is a nightmare so these will be shot with the 17 hmr in the near future the warrens where mainly under brambles but anything sneaking over the top was stopped with the long netts i had a couple of kills on young but it wasn't too bad digging ended about 4.55 with 10 large rabbits farmer showed up and took me to a field where there is a lot of rabbits but plenty of young running about decided to have a go with the 17 hmr on the railway before coming home and when i returned there was plenty of rabbits where i had not ferreted so sat there and accounted for 3 more large rabbits and a young one not in pic so in total 17 dropped 2 off at the ladder trap to keep the crows happy

A good day to be out and you got a good total of rabbits by yourself.
