About LinkBacksChallenging day at Ellesmere today. Skies clear this morning and the birds were flying high and very quickly gun shy. I spent way too long calling birds in and by the time I made a grab for the gun my mate had missed them all with his gun and they were off. Still he managed to bag two parries this morning before we retired for a couple of hours when things got quiet. Returned late afternoon and bowled a mallard and swan each.
I suspect more birds were into the ponds on the lakeside farms as there were some impressive volleys coming from them. I'm stoked with my humble haul. Didn't miss much that I shot at. Probably should have shot at a few more that were probably in range, but I err on the safe side. Happy that I whistled the swans in from a reasonable distance and my expensive parrie caller performed admirably.
