DeepEarth 104 Posted January 16, 2012 Report Share Posted January 16, 2012 You boys sure do do some rough spots. Don't do much hedge ferreting at all here, the land is mostly sheep grazed with dry stone walls surrounding. A ferreters dream. Quote Link to post
Ideation 8,216 Posted January 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2012 Totally alien to us, that. The dogs would think all of their christmasses had come at once there! Would love a day out mooching about it. 2 Quote Link to post
DeepEarth 104 Posted January 16, 2012 Report Share Posted January 16, 2012 Most of that land is on an estate that wouldn't allow guests on unfortunately, or you'd be very welcome. Quote Link to post

paulus 26 Posted January 16, 2012 Report Share Posted January 16, 2012 question how do you get so many photos on one page? when its only a 500k limit? Quote Link to post
DeepEarth 104 Posted January 16, 2012 Report Share Posted January 16, 2012 The digs vary quite a lot on my land. I once dug 2ft through sand on a warren, and then 6ft through sand 10 yard away so it all varies. Then at other places, the ground is more rock than earth and is a nightmare to try and dig in. And Paulus, I just copy the img codes from photobucket. Don't know if that changes anything? Quote Link to post

Country Joe 1,411 Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 Covered in scratches from weekend. Diving on escaping rabbits in the middle of brambles certainly leaves its mark. Funny thing that adrenalin You are really careful when netting up and lifting, but when that Rabbit hits the net, everything you have been doing is up in the air, you dive in, result one rabbit, two scratches.
