    Awoke to teeming rain and instantly thought...well, of course it would be a bad weather day!...but all was not lost...by 11hr00 the rain had abated and the sun actually forced itself to break on through...so it was off to Harry's for corn fritters and venison sausages (I supplied the sausages...bartered for pancetta) for lunch and then down the river.

    Decided to take the young dog Jarlou...we have wandered about the farm but I wanted to do some shot work...birds allowing. And allow it did...a greylag was brought down, the dog steady...then a shot was fired at rock pigeons but they were so fidgety they were not going to take any risks...again the pup was steady to shot. He worked the ground like a machine...the covey we had in mind to revisit were not in the locale...





    Harry and Jarlou on the way back to the vehicle...greylag in hand!!



    So, that is it, Gamebird 2014 is over...
