    49 more rabbits last night.. making the most of the opportunity and the arrival of a bit of energy in my bones. It's been a great week.

    I think you need to come home and go in the bush for a few days...

    There haven't been any magpies around for about two years as the Plovers moved in. I shot a number of them and they buggered off about a year ago and finally the magpies came back in the last few weeks. This juvie thought it would be a good idea to land in a large pohutukawa above the deck while I was having lunch. I think that was a top idea, happy Friday

    I sure do, the southern alps are calling me-I think this is the longest I have been without hunting them since I was twelve.
    I have a upcoming fishing trip to Mongolia that will hopefully scratch the wide open places bug a little

    Did the unthinkable, let a pest free. Well done on the lad for giving it a crack though.

    First attempt at a bird on the wing,it was pretty close and very windy.

    First try on the wing with bow - YouTube
