    love the idea of those silosock dekes eebees.
    i wonder if thats half the problem of our goose and parrie setups [ie no real movement].
    do they move as advertised eebees ''in the slightest breeze''??

    yea i like the magnum goose ones they used to sell in a three pack for you to test thier effectiveness.
    given we now have a all area parrie season for the summer i think the parries are in for a hell of a shock along with the geese.
    a few of those silosocks could make our spreads just that bit more realistic.

    This is my tenth attempt of posting a photo from my phonr. The last ones all came out upside down. If this doesn't work I shall never attempt again!

    Betty doesn't usually get beaten to birds, but since this is her first outing since nursing, she's pretty unfit. Baz had the only findo of the day, Betty had to settle for the back.

    no birds were harmed in the making of this photo, the calis got up to the left in the black berry while yours truly was mucking around trying to take a photo with a wet cellphone...

    @gsp follower, one aspect of them which appealed was that they stack up in the back of the ute very nicely...there is nothing much that can go wrong with them really...
