Jack NUFC 1 Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 (edited) the lamping land local to me was virtually wiped of rabbits out by myxy last year, some nights you could walk for mils and only see one and there that lamp shy they would be at the hedge before you could slip but ive been seing loads recently so i think things are going to pick up and also been seeing quite a few deer latly so thats good because i love too see them Edited June 21, 2008 by ferretingkid Quote Link to post
