Sat out over a small silage cut last night, dropped another @1 am & put the seat back down for a snooze.
Out last night.

Forgot to add, a Sparrowhawk had a snack at last light, I watched it stoop & then it came to within twenty yards of me, perching on a small outcrop of rock to tear the item to bits ... then the all night background churring of the Nightjar started, moon was blacked out by the overcast, bonus.

Precisely no need for it, go the pub if they need to talk bollocks at night with someone.....Bounders... how dare people enjoy themselves on a Saturday night
Nice fireworks show last night, out over Liverpool airport way .. just before the sunset I could see the full height of Blackpool tower & the roller coaster ride next to it from my elevated spot.

Well, just for a change I reverted to daytime calling and a rascal ran right up to me from my 9 o’clock - quick spin to my left with quads just in time to see his tail disappearing into the cover, bugger!
Kept calling and right on cue he walked straight into my sights - sometimes it actually does go to plan (B).

Aye - I love the developments in electronic sights and thermal but I do sorta hanker for those far-off simple days when I didn’t have to wrestle with the Pard’s many buttons in moments of incoming fox-induced panic but then I wouldn’t have some, but definitely not all, of the video memories to look back on.
Have to say I really did enjoy the daylight success though - they are amazing creatures and seeing them in full colour charging straight at you, then scarpering to cover but their innate curiosity bringing them out again is really something special - even after all these years and a lot of foxes.
