    Dont know about peacocks but a few years,ago turkeys decided to move in by the house and roost on the back fence. The Mrs pestered me to do something about those bloody birds but I was a bit slow. Came home late one night and there are 5 headless turkeys in the garage for me to breast.
    She went out after dark with a red headlight and the hedge clippers.

    Hedge clippers and loping Turkey heads have gone together down through the ages.

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Peacocks have roosting trees,eyes shine Sapphire blue. Very cunning birds once they been shot at in day light.
    The moment my truck pulled up at the back block there would be alarm calls and all birds heading for the Gorse/Teatree gully's
    Real guns start with the number 3 or bigger and make two holes, one in and one out

    Went to mum and dad's this morning to pick up some bits and pegged another magpie with @gonetropo air rifle at 35 yards.
    Had to get my stalk on and crawl on my belly between a couple of raised gardens as they're real cagey since we've been shooting a few

    Good work on the Maggie db. Take your old man a couple of Gudgeons and get him to hang that gate before you shoot him any more. He can straighten it if he lays it flat on the ground and panel beats it with a sledge hammer
    PS he could put a few more staples in that stay assembly while he's at it.

    1 Hedgehog
    1 Rabbit
    1 Hare
    5 Possums

    Even spooked a mob of wild pigs

    Hopefully get a couple more nights in before the end of daylight saving

    This weekend the damn swallows have returned. I evicted em from under my house where i built a man cave, thought i'd give em a chance to relocate last year once I blocked it off....
    sometimes they come back, well Christine the swallow and her pals returned so 'curiosity' the shotgun came out to greet them. Iv been carrying that thing everytime I go outside..... got two of the bastards and the third decided to move next door.
    After hearing of the rough time Christine and her friends got, two possums decided to take revenge on my fruit trees. Bad call.
    Sunday, Cue daytime fireworks..... 2.5 Rosella's later
    So a good day for mankind, a bad day for Swallows x2, possums x2 and rosellasx 2.5

    Must say the Rosellas are very satisfying to blast.
    I hate speech those dam things.
