evening all,
just got back off the golf course after a spot of rabbiting,so i thought i would share a couple of first time sightings for me.
firstly i was just creeping through the thickets being all stealthy like(well trying)and i hear a commotion coming through the bushes heading more or less toward me,so i stop dead still and a rabbit flies past me at approx mach3 closely followed by a fox which catches the rabbit and starts flinging it about,the rabbit is squealing like a pig but then the fox catches sight of me and promptly drops the very distressed bunny and scarpers one way while the bunny goes streaking off the other so i go in another direction because of all the obvious commotion.
so i do a good tour of the course bagging a couple of bunnies on the way and start making my way back to the car. walking along the tree line and something darts out in front of me which i first thought was another fox but on closer inspection was the wrong colour. ok then its a dog i thought but then i realised just seen my first badger.didnt realise how big these things were or how fast.i dont know if badgers are common in these parts but definetley a first for me.
sorry for going on a bit but it makes me appreciate what we do for sport/hobby and the things we see that other people may never see.makes you feel sort of privaliged..well does me any way.

drone over

regards shaun
