As we had abit of sun the other afternoon we picked up our kit bags from home and went to the boat for an afternoon on the canal and I took the wheel for a few miles of chilling on the water. On the way back I let my brother take the wheel and I sat on the bow to see what I could photograph and the only thing I could photograph was a Kingfisher on the T&M as in the background of the countryside were constant sounds of gunshots from the local idiot hunters that I have no time for.
I really love the autumn months for the color and beauty of nature but
the sudden influx of game birds being shot really gets me down. I am
waiting for the colder months when the season of blood shed will be
nearing its end and the countryside is returned to the peace that it deserves.

I agree wholeheartedly with you about idiot game shooters. They drive me crazy. Absolutely no skill whatsoever and it spoils the peaceful autumn walks for REAL countryside people! Lovely to see a kingfisher though :)
ReplyDeleteTruly was and I am trying to use the boat as much as possible in case I sell before the bad weather comes in. Every time I see them in the tree line while I boat past I give a loud honk of the boat horn to disperse the birds and the hunters are back to square 1 and the birds are spooked away from them
