hehehe sounds like Stewart Island...and then KIWI pops out and walked over my boots.... what to do???? use your binos.....its a hard habit to get into,but man does it make it easy to see through stuff....you focus ob distance so the other closer stuff sort of fades....

I always hunted those wee grey buggers wearing shearers mocassins..moved on to jimboots and yes mr Duck the bino's,small as they were were the nuts as you'd say lol. Down on all fours paid off a lot too. Oh yeah the grey ghosts are an onto it animal. You describe the ol kiwi poppin in eh,they can also turn out to be a deer at times....................likin what yi write Mr Duck
