Not mine, but I’m sure she’ll be appreciated!




Best I could get, close to the limit of my phones zoom, and cropped. I saw 19 this afternoon in three fields.

“Ribbit!”🐸 I love toads, they’re just wonderful creatures!


I think this target boss needs upgrading! Not the same group of arrows as the photo above, I hasten to add…
First bike ride in 3 weeks+ recovering from a bout of pneumonia. Heart rate never above zone 2...who knew going slowly could be so much fun!
Took advantage of the weather being relatively kind this afternoon to set up new sight marks on my bow, moving out from 30yds to 40yds. Seems I’m getting the hang of it now, although the new vanes may be more stable than the rather flimsy previous ones.


Quite satisfying, really. 😁
Red Kite? @dakuan your pictures are absolutely amazing! Can you please start a thread just with your pictures?
yes its a Red Kite, absoutely riddled with them where I live. That's very kind but that would be very egotistical 😂. Could do a nature photography one if theres enough interesti guess

Wondering now whether you're near me in Northants, or in central Wales somewhere?

I'm in the Chilterns!

That was where the first controlled release was carried out. Now, with the spread of native birds from Wales, they’re everywhere - they’ve been flying around where I live in Chippenham, for the last five or six years, and there were five or six around my archery club last weekend.
Speaking of which, I was shooting a few sticks this afternoon, trying to refine my technique - started off ok, didn’t last… 🙄
That’s at 50yds, btw.
Then a man turned up to cut the grass, which really needed to be done!




First evening at the range this year, now the clocks have changed. Perfect conditions, too.

Needs work, but I’m shooting 50yds.


Is there some sort of event or holiday coming up I should know about?
Christmas innit.
