    Some very photogenic pigs.

    Yesterday when sorting out some fencing at the back of the farm I noticed some rooting.

    Both myself and the other house wouldn't mind some nice eating pork so I snuck up there just before dark tonight.
    Eight were out and I closed in to about 70 yards, took a prone position and headshot the fattest boar, then reloaded and swung through and shot the best sow as she ran past.
    Pretty happy with this rifle! It can be happily in Tahr country one day, and shooting close running game the next.

    Standing silage. Just dried off the cows, they will get a break of that each day over winter.

    Craig, you have such a way with wild animals! It amazes me that you can get them to stay so still for pictures!
