    One of those days...

    Can just about bring myself to post this. Spent 8 hours in the bush yesterday. Saw nothing, no fresh sign until right at the end of my walk, then came face-to-face with a young goat. I got tangled in the bush and it trotted off. That was it until I was almost back at the car and spooked two little pigs which were within 10 metres distance from me. Got the rifle on to one of them, it was running fast. I didn't pull the trigger and that was that. Game over. First pigs I've ever seen on DOC land.

    Don't think I did anything particularly wrong, just a bit of bad luck. I was pretty buggered by the time I came across the pigs, so wasn't at the top of my game. A few seconds in my favour and it would have been a different story!
