TOMO 26,067 Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 Not done many posts this season,,,, but vin has badgered me today to do one,,, so here goes.. Had a run up north on to one of our farms,,,had good numbers up there over the years,,, but it's a bit low this year,,, but still a few to knock over,,,,got there about 7.30 and after a 20 Minuit near vitical climb,,, that has your hart going overdrive ,,, we eventually got to the area we were to do today Now because of the low numbers and some warrens being 20 pluss holes,, we decided to not bother netting,, and I'm glad we did,, bacau the warrens were only holding 1,2,3 's. Nothing holding big numbers,,, But it worked well all day,,, and because soppy bollox forgot his spade,,, we had to stay together and ferret warrens next to each other,,,had some cracking runs and catches,,, and by the time we had 20 we hadn't missed a thing,,, At one point high up we watched a stoat In full ermine chasing a rabbit around,, always great to see such spectacles ,, another interesting thing happened to me today,,, I dug down to a rabbit,,,put my hand down the hole,, felt the rabbit,,grabbed a back leg,,,, felt round with my other fingers for the other leg,,,, found it and pulled out the rabbit,,,,but to my surprise it was two rabbits,, I had got,, one by each back leg,,,,lol By 2 pm it was decided to start making tacks and get back down of the hill,,, we ferreted a few more warrens on the way down where the dogs marked,,, and added a few more to the bag,,, wich ended with a respectable 44,,, a cracking day without any rain,,,and clear sky's ,,,can't wait to get back at them,, in a few days,,, Vin get your pics up 12 Quote Link to post
