As time goes on and the birds mature and disperse, and with our novice dogs getting exposure to birds while all learn how to utilise the block will surely make for some very exciting and fun days.

    For the record, this is private land, and a private venture(not a preserve) we have made accessible soley to the Pointer and Setter Club. Our thanks to those who have supported us and helped along the way to make it a success.
    Great have the input and another persons personal insight to enthuse others to become involved!
    Tweed or not to Tweed that is the question
