Yes
Yep today spent 10.5 hours in the hide with Fernface next to me in his hide (He joined me at lunchtime) and look what I got ...................................





















Yep, you are not seeing things, absolutely nothing, not one shot fired :bang: :bang: :bang: all we saw was a Muntjac walk along the edge of the field too far away, and laos a Kestrel hovering which did not stay very long.

Oh the joys of togging :bang: (y) :puke:

At least we had the comforts of hot drinks supplied by Brian and his little cooker, thanks Brian.

See what wonders tomorrow brings.

Well you have just learnt a very valuable lesson about wildlife photography, they don't always appear to order and you need patience to get the shot, it can take hours, days, even weeks.
 
I will think of you tomorrow when I go to my hide. Usually have three red squirrels running around me while I fill their feeders!:nuts:

Hope you have better luck soon. You did well though to wait all that time.Shows you have dedication.(y)
 
Meeeeeee? In a hide with a woman? For 10.5 hours?

Oxford you say? :naughty:
 
You should frame that, title it 'Nothing', have a teeny piece of text underneath with something existential and philosophical to describe it and flog it to Tate Modern!! :D:D

I have come to the conclusion that they liked the food cooked not raw :LOL: the choice would have surpassed anybodys top restaurant, it included, Fresh Salmon (which had been on my freezer for ages and would have not got eaten as I get given these regularly :naughty:) liver, turkey leg, chicken wings, day old frozen chicks (defrosted) and a complete chicken in feather, plus 5 chickenn carcasses from the butchers, still no takers, :shrug: may just chuck a few sausages in the pot as well :LOL: :LOL: :LOL:
 
Keep putting milk in Brians tea, he'll make sure they make an appearance for you ;)
I remember the noise from around the hide when he used a dead crow as bait, I thought they were going to eat him as well :D
