So I had a hour or so around the new bit, my god there’s some rabbits about, I only went around the house and the back of one of the egg units managed 21 for 22 shots, to be honest there was no testing shots, the one I missed was because it was to close, I haven’t even put a dent in them, should keep me going over the coming weeks, nice to have somewhere new to have a walk around for an hour on an evening

I’ll box some up and send them down in exchange for a few gingers

Popped out last night and grassed my 2nd buck of the season

Plenty of hares here though .I mean very few in case the dog lads are watching 

Had a couple hours back on the feeder this afternoon .Something must have bothered the squirrels earlier as 5 came in but only one committed to feed ,very jumpy .Bagged a jay too ,first for the airgun .Thought I’d missed it but getting out the hide I could see it on top a bramble patch about 10 m away ,shot through back of neck in that flappy bit ( technical term ).

Had the one squig .Walked around the wood just before dusk and must have seen 40 squigs.
