hi all went out this morning for a walk with the hw77,theres alot of activity going on with the hares there was 8 running round chaseing each other just in one field you can tell its shagging time,so i let them be and just watched them for awhile,and has anyone had this happen before a sparrow hawk landed on my rifle,nice to see but scared the shit out of me,it must have thought i was a tree the only thing i shot was a crow,but what a great morning to be out,no pic i forgot to take my phone with me but you all no what a crow looks like.cheers

Hi.. i control vermin on the village golf course, at the bottom of the course i built a small hide from an old crate that was going to be burned with the rubbish. When i first built it i had a regular visitor that would come for a look around and he'd sit on my moderator for a while. I was quite happy to see him until on one visit he took a dump on my mod witch was met by a swift back hand, havnt seen him since. Iv got a vid on my phone of a little sparky killing a starling in a garden a month or so ago, id upload it if i knew how but im usless on these things.

Brown hare is on the approved quarry list for an air rifle. Just need to remember that they are a lot bigger than buggs, take a bit more killing.

 

It's illegal to lamp them, which is a pain as it's difficult to tell the difference under the lamp.
