    Cool Spotlight

    One night dad took me out to go spotlighting.
    We got up the hill and we saw a hare so dad shot at it 2 times missed!!
    So we raced to the dam we saw nothing the next paddock we saw him!
    3 shots missed again!!!We raced to the next paddock 2 shots missed again!!!!But the next shot got it!!!!So i went to retrieve it


    After that we went past the hay shed nothing in thereThe next paddock we got to we saw another hare 1 shot missed next shot hit!!!!!!!!!! That was a 150 metre shot
    This is me retrieving it

    so we went back to the freezer to drop the hares off



    This is how full it is now

    Good job gigglepuss, leave some for me for my next visit though eh??

    Let us know when you have some luck with the possum trap too. Maybe put it over at those big grandaddy Macros where Daniel put most of his traps the other night - a few of them were set off even though he only caught the one.
