Ok, lets get this thread back on track!
I have changed the time of day that I walk the dogs to around 3:45. Walking through the woods it became apparent I was in a target rich environment! A maggie and a woody fell to my little catty's charms. Magpies in particular fly at the first hint of you with a rifle, but sauntering along with the catapult didn't bother them one bit. Both shots taken from virtually underneath at around 8 yards.
Well happy!
Better to admit you walked through the wrong door than spend your life in the wrong room
