Well there is no meat in the freezer for Bert and I don't want him going hungry so popped out for some bunnies even though it's a full moon as when I left it was covered by cloud and it looked ok. On arrival at the ground the bloody clouds disappeared,  the moon came out and it was like daylight with not a breath of wind. Not many rabbits about , no wonder ? anyway plodded on and couldn't believe I ended up with 10. Bert wont go hungry tomorrow ?

It’s been frosty the last couple of mornings, it’s very welcome , hopefully it will kill a few bugs . Unfortunately the Maize and cover crops don’t like it and they will soon be unviable as a drive .

It became a half day but enjoyable the same .

6 guns 5 beaters only 14 birds but too still. No real wind to lift them and a couple disappeared into thick scrub.

A good craic at nosh time and the lockdown stomach to a punishment ?
