Whilst out stalking on Monday morning came across a few more Frenchmen, no bucks unfortunately. Apparently a 40 plus covey was spotted on one of our fields so it's fingers crossed that they linger around for our first shoot. Plus some more feed hoppers to place this coming weekend should help.
We are not having any luck on the fox front at all. The one's that we do come across are lamp shy and depart at a rapid pace. We will have to ambush those to stand any chance of getting a shot off unless someone would like to donate a thermal imaging camera to a good cause!
Touch wood the luck will change one night as we have not been this barren at all. Either we made such a good job of controlling them earlier in the year or the little darlings are not going out to play until real stupid o'clock. I suspect that stupid o'clock is the factor. An all nighter beckons.
