Fox 2 Lampers 0


Apart from the night sky picture the lamping session proved fruitless with regards to any shots taking at reynard. Two were spotted during the night which started after the feed and water of the poults. The first was a fleeting glimpse and the second was a rather frustrating attempt to get an adult fox into a safe area so that a shot could be taken, to no avail unfortunately. The weather turned against us as well with the sky almost crystal clear and the moon doing a good job of lighting everything. Metcheck proved right.
Good news though is that the farm have started to harvest the oil seed rape so the next session should allow additional fields to be scanned plus with the current good weather other crops will mature and maybe also be cropped. Hopefully some hotspot fields will come into action........
Be aware there is someone's beloved moggy (has a reflective collar on) in the left field on Lovedean Road.
