It's My Favourite Time of Year Again


Recommended Posts

Harvest time is upon us once again so it's time to seek the shelter of some shady tree and watch the dogs work. Mine have been doing it so many years now........they have it off to an art form. Always be careful with with machinery about as it is all to easy to in the heat of the chase for accidents to happen. My dogs are ok in as much they will stand ready to snap up any bolters that make a bid for freedom without the need for a restraint of any kind.....that said.....i keep them under close control when the harvester is approaching. Fantastic sport though watching the dogs working out in the open.

Nice few shots there rolfe. I remember your post last year of the harvest. What kind of numbers where in crops this year?

Just started the harvest here..........but the numbers seem a bit down on last year......that said Mixy has hit us hard here but we shall still get a good bit of sport between now and September.

do you get many rabbits bolting out the crops then and what sort of distance from the holes are they?

Usually get a few bolt at the end of each cut.............anywhere between 40 and 70 yards as a rule.......but plenty of time for the dogs to pick them up
