Nailed this grey over the woods this afternoon with the AA S510 U/S reg. About 40 yds away level shot, the .177 jsb entered just below
the ear, travelled through the brain and was caught under the skin on the far side. On checking the kill shot later I found the .22 pellet
just below the other it having travelled through the neck area some time ago without hitting anything vital. It was discoloured from being
there a while and not distorted, also the wound had healed over. The grey in question was in full breeding condition and prior to my shot
seemed in very good health. Just goes to show how though these creatures are. The second pic is the reason why the greys need controlling,
I snapped this little Song Thrush outside the potting shed today, two years back it would not have made it to hatching let alone fledge. The
squirrels or maggies would have found the usually conspicuous nest and killed the lot.
