    Brilliant SA. Slow roast over the BBQ (lid down obviously). Cover the breasts with bacon. Yum.

    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!

    Nice shooting on those DOE's

    The "black" one is a melanistic color phase and the "tan" one is either menil or common color phase but looks like a common.
    got a shot of hind quarters and tail?

    Did you keep the skin?

    They come up nice as a wall hanging

    "Hunting and fishing" fucking over licenced firearms owners since ages ago.
