One thing that strikes me about that photo is, it's only one rabbit, but means the world. No ego's just good honest pot hunting, take what you need and leave the rest for when you need them again.

I wonder did it ever cross his mind that at some point in the future what he took as part and parcel of country life would be frowned upon even to the disgraceful conclusion of banning it. I really don't think so! Good days hard but good. Thanks for another terrific pic marshman

 

 

I'm pretty sure it was frowned upon then!

Where did you get that one Darbo? Looks like a Peter Ingham paint job.
