[fluff 409]

was up on hills today there far from bucked up miles from each other , the ones i saw , maybe on the lower lying feilds but still in good condition considering the wet winter we have had ,

A weeks hard frost will soon push the bucks back, when the ice is on their backs.

This shooting season when i was in the beating line i found a leveret that would have sat on my hand no problem and have been seeing half grown leverets all winter,they've been paired up for weeks if not months round me and i've seen hundreds of the bloody dog walk ruining bloody things lately ..

If you are taking a hare for the pot here and there i don't see a problem, I am not going to deny a man a feed, if you are taking numbers of leverets I believe that is a crime and worse if you don't eat them but as if they would make laws to protect hares...

I would fully agree with that mate..

I would of sent the dog in after a shot it..I don't see anoth to think about it being unsporting ..lol

 

You would see none if we all had that same attitude

None is exactly what i see in places that used to hold good numbers of hares, the result of over lamping, and shooting, it's a sorry sight without the hares
