villaman 9,983 Posted November 5, 2017 Report Share Posted November 5, 2017 Went to one of my wood permissions to day for a bit of squirrel and pigeon shooting , but still loads of leaves on the trees . Are there still loads on where you are ? 1 Quote Link to post
Outback 1 26 Posted November 5, 2017 Report Share Posted November 5, 2017 First frost here this morning should sort the leaves from the boughs !!! Quote Link to post
mattwhite 1,993 Posted November 5, 2017 Report Share Posted November 5, 2017 Still a few on the trees at home but we're up in the lakes until tomorrow and there's hardly any leaves at all up here. Been out walking and not seen hardly anything. No rabbits, crows, Maggie's, nothing. Just a few woodies? Quote Link to post
stealthy1 3,964 Posted November 5, 2017 Report Share Posted November 5, 2017 Full moon just rising here, hoping for a good frost tonight, even if it just stuns the f***ing stinging nettles. Quote Link to post

The one 8,482 Posted November 5, 2017 Report Share Posted November 5, 2017 Aye i was checking some permission earlier in the week it was waist high with nettles , had a couple of days of frost then there saying rain tomorrow . I think the rain will flatten more than the frost Quote Link to post
tomburras 2,730 Posted November 5, 2017 Report Share Posted November 5, 2017 Still bats flying about too. 1 Quote Link to post
The one 8,482 Posted November 5, 2017 Report Share Posted November 5, 2017 I was actually thinking if i could creep about the golf course opposite tomorrow and ferret a few rabbits as the covers still that high i dont think they would see me or put it down to somebody raking for golf balls 1 Quote Link to post

villaman 9,983 Posted November 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 Just thought it might be a southern thing , being a bit warmer down here , but seems to be most of the country Quote Link to post
Baldcoot 2,352 Posted November 8, 2017 Report Share Posted November 8, 2017 In the Midlands cover is still as thick as guts ,mad weather is confusing all the plants.Hopefully the frost/ice heavy rain will knock it back and sitty trees will be standing out like a sore thumb as pigeons offer to fill the freezer Quote Link to post
Jonjon79 13,358 Posted November 8, 2017 Report Share Posted November 8, 2017 A lot of the leaves are down on my permissions. It's mostly sycamore, oak, chestnut and a fair few pines - it's perfect for DPM camo at the moment. Quote Link to post

Most trees that I see still have them. Do not know about the rest of the country. All the very best for you and yours Quote Link to post
