[Bangersanmash 3,061]

Well been out to sort the birds out and thought Al check the live trap & this big b*****d was in. Funny looking in the face very light colour and a Roman like style head domed shape. Not seen one like this before. Anyway a put a pellet between its eyes.  Been causing me some shit for past few weeks this f****r if it's the same one. Dogs have been going mad out side near bins and near next doors rabbit hutch behind fence knowing its been about.

They'll be plenty a live at back of some allotments and near water ways river & canal mate. Lol. Numbers were down due to mink. But lads have trapped the mink due to them taking their races from round allotments & hens too. Mink few weeks back took a chaps racers over 30 odd years worth of breeding 40 odd birds then went back and took another 20 odd. Ended up getting the family of mink but rat numbers are back now around the area.

I've seen that where mink were heavily trapped on a small stream. The rat numbers exploded, with the lack of predation.

It's a catch 22 mate. Ashame the mink went onto the allotments taking the racers and not stayed down near waters. But lad who's bailiff on syndicate ponds said they had trouble with mink taking the fish. So had a fella shooting them & the cormorants too. But can't of been doing much because early morning they'd be about a good dozen cormorant on the ponds getting a good fill lol. A watch a Herron jack a cormorant for its catch. Which you'd of thought the cormorant would of give the Herron what for. The numbers of cormorants have built up. A know this because there down on the river side near the shit works early hours perch up in this dead tree. Must be about 30 of the c**ts.

Yea we have tons of cormorants here too. Seems more and more each year. The pine marten are replacing the mink, and can't be touched. They are worse than mink when it comes to the birds.
