Seen young lambs couple weeks ago couldn’t believe it . 1 Quote Link to post

I know a few people now split lambing between traditional spring lambing but also lambing outdoors in September. Catch the easter market for NSL 1 Quote Link to post

This heavily pregnant ewe was cast (stuck on her back). Bloody blacks still on her as I was charging in on the bike. I bet WJ don't publsih that. I'd try sending it to a few newspapers. I doubt they'll publish a story but you never know one might. Anything that makes the urban antis see why control is necessary, can only be good for shooting. 5 1 Quote Link to post
Meece 1,958 Posted November 13, 2020 Report Share Posted November 13, 2020 It's very satisfying when you really put the full charge onto a real full crown carrion crow. They hit the ground with he'll of a thump. I remember walking along a tall thick hedge and a bigun was cruising along the hedge line. I knew that it was coming because it was giving out the odd raucous caw. It was big and it floated over the top of the hedge. Suddenly it saw me and flaired it's wings like a stall.! Too late. The pattern of 6,s hit home. 3 Quote Link to post

smithie 2,443 Posted November 14, 2020 Report Share Posted November 14, 2020 I once dropped a couple of crows off at the butchers as he had a customer that asked for them.. He had a market stall and a customer liked to eat them but could not get them. He never asked me to get them again, maybe the customer did t find them as ice as he remember them to e lol 2 Quote Link to post
