    A walk in the Bush Paddock

    Me and the missus went for a stroll with the camera.

    stalked up on a few that where croaking but I wasn't quick enough with the camera and they where hiding pretty good too.

    Here is some of the better shots anyway.


    4 deer ^




    Then All hell broke loose and 7 of the buggers took off in all directions



    So we sat down for a few minutes and took off in another direction and came across these two





    The hind saw me and bugged off but the Stag was none the wiser.













    Then it was lunch time.

    Nice buck there Timmay. Are you going back with a shooting stick?
    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

    Cheers guys. Yep they where croaking away. I couldn't get any half way decent shots of that action due to bush cover and my bad camera focusing skills.

    Might go back with the rifle for a red as they have a similar number out the back near the river.

    I couldn't smell them but Rachael definitely could.
