bushing lad 114 Posted July 24, 2013 Report Share Posted July 24, 2013 (edited) got up at 5 this morning to go after some rabbits and squirrels. after a quick walk in the quarry where i saw plenty of rabbits and missed two , i went to a wood where i have put a squirrel feeder. its only been up a few days and the squirrels have found it already. so i waited for a bit but then i remembered that the squirrels round here are lazy buggers and dont get up till 7 ish so i went for a gander until then. on my gander i managed to get a rabbit then after more mooching i decided to go back to the squirrels. as i got near i saw a squirrel on the ground. so i tried to get closer to it but it was not having any of it and went up a tree and into a hole. so i sat near the tree and waited. as i was waiting i heard a noise. so i had a look around and saw that there was a squirrel on my feeder. so i decied to get a little closer and luckily it didnt see me and i sent a pellet its way and it dropped to the ground. my feeder wont win any beauty contests as ime sh*t at D.I.Y but the squirrels like it and thats all that matters the final bag Edited July 24, 2013 by bushing lad 3 Quote Link to post

bushing lad 114 Posted July 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2013 For me if i was going out that early anyway i would have a couple of fens set under that feeder i do have some cage traps which when set always catch squirrels. i caught 9 squirrels earlier this year with them in a little wood nearbye and thats a good haul round here as they are pretty scarce. but i prefer to shoot them if posible Quote Link to post
