    Personally I wouldn't shoot any Peacocks that are malting, Malting being the first step in the Beer making process, such cleaver and rare Peacocks should be cared for and nurtured. A bit like shooting the Golden Goose.

    Look what the clever wife has been up to. She says there's a couple of dead magpies at about 180m, up the top of the hill. But I can't see them...

    Theyre bloody messy birds shedding feathers all over the place when you hit them.

    Thought it might have been a blank day but the luck changed.Saw nothing at the run off but hit the anchors on the way home as I spotted a hare sitting next to a post.Then a reccy of the old dairy farm spotted a big black cat so he got a headache also,the cat was sitting next to a rabbit burrow.
