    Wife was not impressed with the cat. I thought she was doing a magnificent job. 100% guaranteed it was dead.

    This is exactly how it was left at the back door this afternoon.

    Have an approx 90 yr old Phoenix Palm in my back yard. Gets heavily populated with randy pigeons. Hate the bloody things, shit all over the decks and the roof peak where they like to sit in the sun. Guano rusts iron and incredible how it grows green and black stuff on the deck thru the winter. So every now and then I have a go with my trusty cheap Hatsan bought for the purpose. With 154gr Gamo G-Buffalos doing around 900fps it knocks them down out to about 25m. Here's one that dropped at my feet this morning. No.5 over the last 3 days. The neighbour's cat loves me. The neighbour not so much. I try to limit it to one a day but sometimes it gets there first. And sometimes the target manages to flutter-glide to crash land on a neighbour's roof thence to the ground. Tough being a cat having to run the long way around.

    It's when they bring them in at night and proceed to eat them under the bed, first the squealing wakes you up, then the steady crunch crunch crunch keeps you awake. Then the cat comes and sits on your chest burps and goes to sleep.

    Took the boy out to try and get some barn pigeons. Dads a bit hopeless and only got 1 of the 3 but he’s still happy to get something

    Last night on some just cut silage paddocks destined for Maize crop. 13 hares and 6 possums. Retrieved 12 and 5. Only one possum and 3 hares good enough for commercial pet food…. Rest will be human consumption and dog tucker for my self.

    Ran out of light so need to get a recharging system or another spot light. Didn’t get to check all the area I needed to.

    Thermal hand held and NV scope be ideal…$$ won’t stretch to a thermal yet…



    Will try to get get again be ground gets turned over for Maize…

    No picture but there is currently another dead rabbit in the middle of my bosses lawn (he lives next door). I shoot them in the reserve behind us and sometimes they jump and fall back dead sometimes on his lawn, this has happened twice now. One day I might own up to it. Shot with my JW15 and CCI subs from my back door step.
