    They're not supposed to be doing it till Feb but I'd say they're doing counts.
    They have the contract for that.

    If not counting maybe catching.

    I know they have been doing counts/monitoring recently as the manager of Lillybank has been sitting in the machine with them.

    @Mathias Can’t be much money in shooting deer at the moment? No one hurt obviously?
