Out with dogs an catty

[Bangersanmash 3,207]

Went for a mooch with dogs down old pit banks an on the old railway line they used to use. Not much about dog popped a pheasant up but I'm not good at shooting something that's moving. I'm not that good with catty anyway lol. So thought I'd chill near this bridge pop  a few things up to practice at. Terrier makes me laugh. She'll wait until I've taken my shot then go investigate. I need too shoot some more game for her. She loves it.

I had a good walk this morning and had a wile in a wood that's usually lifting with squirrels but didn't see a oner. They must be in dreys with young.

Just one on the floor under the feed bin mate the others scattered as soon as they saw me. Though I missed though in all honesty the last few months I haven't been getting many shots of. Their is still loads of pheasants and partridge knocking about that I could have had shots at though i don't bother as I don't want to bump into the keeper wile having shots at his birds as i couldn't do with the aggro tbh honest as he has seen me from a distance away with the binoculars around my neck and with not having a dog has not approached me and that's the way I like it.

I've heard a bit of tittle tattle about him mate as he's not from around here. Though it would be embarrassing if i had a run in with him as my granddaughter works part time in the pub that serves meals for the shooting party on shoot days and his daughter is her manager. I have told my granddaughter fgs don't tell them who your grandad is as i have a bit of past history with the estate.
