He sees a lot mate And trust me, he has had plenty of mouthfulls of feathers, before he learnt the knack of grabbing them with his feet as well, and then getting his jaws around their body, rather than just feathers.

 

Even so, quite a lot of them are against hedges or fences, but he catches his share in cover and even in open fields, jumping at them as they take off.

 

Edited to add - he has also had ducks, pigeons and moorhens, and a blackbird once.

love that type of ground you got any munty down that way

[Ideation 8,216]

Yes mate, so do i.

 

Unfortunatly on this estate, not one single deer of any kind, the big road and river has blocked them from moving in. It breaks my heart, as it is ideal habitat for them, and it's only me who has access to dog it.

[Ideation 8,216]

Who knows what will happen with time though mate, it's funny what can turn up where.
