shane7681 8 Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 Hi all just finished work and took my four month old pup for a walk down my local ecology park. On my way back to the car i seen something move about thirty yards away and the dog shot off. The next thing i knew the pup comes trotting up the track with something in her mouth. I couldnt believe what she got, It was a woodcock she had it by the wing it was still alive so i took it off her and let it go, the bird couldnt fly so well so i let the dog go she caught it again and retrieved it still alive This time i necked it as it wouldent have survived i am going to eat it as i havent tried woodcock befor. Anyway i am over the moon with the pup and cant wait till shes older. shane Quote Link to post

talljim 0 Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 They reckon they taste better if you roast them with the guts still in. Tons of the buggers round here with all this cold weather, I say give it a go. Jim Quote Link to post
