Out last night.

Just been out to see how Dave is doing.
Bloody rough out there! It's going to do some damage somewhere!
Maybe should of been called Storm(y) Daniels!
Didn't see my fox. No surprise really, it'll be layed up somewhere cosy...

Aye , just walked the dog and a few fences blown over 😳
 
I pulled out at 21:30, Land Rover felt like it was going to tip over, seriously.
Lots of trees & boughs to dodge going back to the village.
Going back tonight to do it properly.
 
Muffed it.
I missed.
Waited hours for it to arrive.
Ok, it was in the wood for the first shot but not the bloody second shot!
😭
 
Checked camera for last night and it looks like another arrived 03:30.
I doubt I'll look tonight. Not had much sleep and brought three loads of ash home today.
Zzzzzz
 
Out last night on a new farm after some issues with the foxes thinking lamb is acceptable as a midnight snack. Had a quick tour with the farmer in the buggy then off for a wander with the .243. Set up overlooking about 150 acres and after about 5 minutes out pops a fox....it was on to me so a slightly rushed shot and a quick 20 yard dash by the fox and she was down.

Spent another couple of hours on different spots but no more foxes seen.

No 15.
