    Breeding season around the country?

    Everyone i talk to in my area (South Canterbury and North Otago) has commented on how many ducklings are around. There has been a mob in almost every paddock on our farm. I guess due to the amount of rain we had in august there has been water everywhere. dunno im pretty green.

    Anyway it looks good for my season.

    Hows the rest of the country going.

    I started trapping our place but got busy with cows and calves. I will get the buggers though the summer.

    Ther are several pairs of Paradise ducks with young ducklings on my place at the moment but they always piss off to places unknown come the first weekend in May.
    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
