Midnight progress report. I got 3 on the waterhole pre dark then another 5 after dark. No effort whatsoever. But they were all average or small. They were Approaching the hole very cautiously. Feeding on the dead ones too Saw some in the fav paddock on the way back to house but wind was bad. Eventually they spooked and I was cranky at the wind for my long walk. But one hundred m from the Ute I thought I smelt pigs so up with the binos and sure enough roughly ten were making their way across a cult paddock to my fav paddock this time the wind was firmly in my favour and the anmbish worked well I got one and headed back to house. Brief snack Top up water bottles with cold ones , make sure the beer I’m going to have in a few hours is correctly positioned in the fridge so that it’s perfevtly chilly after my next paddock stint. About the put the gear and rifle and dog into the quad so I will have 180 degree thermal scanning ability as I’m moving through my fav paddocks .... bloody roo ra n in to my side panels on the wa back to the house no my door only opens a little and I have to squeeze into the Ute. Lucky I’m not too fat. Heading off out real soon
