  1. Is it possible to get a heat source looking at a squirrel drey? Thinking about a XM30s....

  4. Lost a pair when we were digging a fox out years ago. They must have been in the back fill. Everytime we returned to this place, I was hoping we’d end up digging in the same earth but we never did, so it’s Charlie’s fault ?

    Ditto, it’s my alert too, mainly due to my interest in them. Love to study them in summer ??
  6. Bet he had a good time when they were really famous ??
  7. We’ve decided to go one more time on this place. There’s still a few trees we’ve not touched, but having had 25 from this small wood, the guy who runs it phoned to ask if we’d visit again. Good tip as I’m sure most will know, don’t ram the pole through the drey, just gently tap it and you’ll find a squirrel coming out to look at what’s happening and sitting on top of the drey, that’s the time to shoot it, as it presents an easy target. I’ve had a hook fitted to the end of the pole, so after we’ve poked the drey, we can pull it apart to discourage others from using it ??

  10. Popped another seven off this morning ??
  11. I’d use one on the clays, good guns. I’ve just bought an Armsan semi. Great knockabout gun. 100% with it ysdsy, a tree rat and a crow ??

  15. Dreading that. I’m in on Friday and then off until Monday but on fire watch over weekend
  16. Thousands out where I work in the countryside. Cars parking everywhere, shit all over the place, fences broken and stiles kicked down, otherwise, yes, it’s been a lovely day
  17. No mate but we’re hoping that the flycatchers return to nest once we do our best to get rid of the tree rats. This is a spot I asked about on another thread where discretion was needed. They’re causing lots of damage to saplings that people are planting in memory of loved ones and they cost a fortune to buy ??
  18. Early start, first light drey poking at a spot where discretion is needed. Ended up with eight tree rats, got with the moderated 410. We had a bolt of six from one drey, of which I shot three. Going back next week for another do.

    Pet hates.

    Seeing Roman fecking Kemp on telly....again! And being behind a woman at a roundabout when there’s also a woman at every other junction on it. They just sit and stare at each other ffs ??
  20. It’s a good book. If you want to learn about the fox, this is a good place to start, very thorough and he’s a clever fella. Good description of digging a fox out towards the end of the book as he fought to save a vixen he’d been following and her cubs. Even the terrier lads helped out but to no avail.
  21. Not a Leeds fan but as a football fan he was a great player. He could shoot and had a shot as hard as I’ve seen.
  22. They didn’t include “the follow through” ??
