Thread: Winter hunting

I'm getting older and slightly more sensible. I look for a good weather forecast before I head out, especially in winter. As you have noted hunt the sunny faces about 2/3 - 3/4 of the way up. Although you will find them above/on the bushline if the weather has been settled, especially the lower front country in Canterbury.
Look for spots that catch the early morning sun and will be out of the wind. Keep looking through to mid-morning as well. From about 3pm on they will come out into theopen to feed if there is not much snow around.
Animals probably won't be down in the valley flats because it is too cold, there will be water up high.
