yea a MAG-PIE Lol

last weekend

Last night Dundee and i went out to find easter bunny, we went around the farm with the spotlight and the .22. The wet due was heavy, my glasses had water all over them, Dad spotted a hare so he picked up his gun and aimed but couldnt see through the scope. The next minute i see the hare running in to a deep valley so we let it live. I asked dad to go to the run - off and he said he better clear the scope first, so we went to the shed i cleared my glasses well he cleared the scope. We went over to the shed to get some fat just incase a magpie has eaten all the bate in the magpie trap. Off we went to the run-off we checked the magpie trap but nothing bate was gone though. so we went into a diffrent paddock saw a hare we chased after it and shot at it but he got away very luckily. we looked through all the bushes just incase we hit him, im sure he was hit but we still couldnt find him. so we left it. Then we went up into the top paddock and there were 2 hares so dad let me shine the spotlight on them and BANG! hit hes started kicking but he disapeared into the long grass so i shined the spotlight on the other one but he ran away. Next minute the injured hare gets up and ran in circles then he ran straight into the bike! I sat there laughing my head off he must of been hit real bad , he turned around stopped, BANG! hit. He kept on running he ran under the fence i said to dad "should i run after him" "no" said dad BANG! hit but he kept running "go chase him" said Dad. so i jumped off the qaud and sprinted after him, he didnt get very far. i grabbed his back legs and broke his neck. Finally! I think he was wearing a bullet proof vest! I put him on the bike and we went after the one that ran away. we saw it then it ran under the fence so we went through the gate and saw him running along the ponds edge and he disapeared in to the valley, we went after him and spotted him again but nope he got away too . We went into the next paddock and saw one by the tree line dad handed the spotlight to me the i was holding on to the bike with one hand hanging half off so i swiched hands and pulled myself up then the hare disapeared into the long grass, we followed the treeline and still we couldnt find him. Then looked to my right and saw him half way up the hill staring at us with his big orange eyes dad turned the bike around then the hare started running up the hill BANG! hit shot him when he was running
we went up to get him and dad ran him over just to make sure, then i got off the bike and went and grabbed him then i found out that he was shot in the bum so that he couldnt make a run. He was still alive and it took alot to kill him first i tryed to hit him and he dodged my hand i was thinking "what the hell???" so then i held is legs broke his neck and put him on the front of the bike hurt my hand too but never mind. We went down the hill saw anotherone! man its been a while since ive seen that many we chased after it and he went back in to the valley where 3 got away in there! "Get away Valley"

so we went back home saw a possum but the neighbours dogs were behind it, he was safe and lucky, next minute he bolted off into the trees got back and took a photo and that was it! i had a great night out hunting

Well done my boys,love the story.

Last Night went out for a hunt at the run off we got into the magpie paddock and the magpies had dragged the bait (fat) out of the trap. dundee reset that, then we went into another paddock and we saw a hare so we chased after that and it was running up the hill BANG! missed Dundee was reloading the .22 and it ran away, we couldnt find it. So we headed into the next paddock. i saw these orang eyes then BANG! out of the tree falls a possum, I climbed the fence and grabbed it then i started plucking it.
I think i did a very good job!

Exept for how dundee had to remind me to pluck the legs



Here is me holding the possum up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good plucking skills Sean

Dad was right to remind you not leave any of that valuable fur behind.

My friend Jules Hunts possums for a living over in the Waitotara Valley , she tells me that when times get hard she even plucks the eyebrows

Any Ideas why Dundee wasn't hitting anything all night long?
