Woke up approx 5.30am and hmmm & rrrrrr about a trip up to the shoot, anyway about the time I decided to go it was approx 6.30am. The objective was to try and ambush a fox on the railway bank that we can never see during the lamping sessions. We had left some dog meat on our previous trip so I was hoping that it might of done the trick to entice the bugger out.
Anyway, stalked the long way round due to the wind to the top of the bank by the stubble field. Three roe doe's were spotted approx 400 yards away and of course now out of season. Whenever I see the beasts it's always the wrong sex for the season!
Proceeded along the bank at a slow pace, stopping every ten yards to emit a few squeaks from the mouse call but to no avail.
The picture taken is of the fox den from last year, obviously now in use again but I am sure that it's Badgers that have taken residence this time judging by the rubble. If anyone agree's please let me know.
