Sorry I asked you to repeat yourself about wot birds you fly, didn't see your first post.

You should try that roundabout on your side of the Tay Bridge for bunnies, must have been 10 sittin out on it this morning when I passed !

Im lucky where I live with the amount of rabbits goin around this year, its a lot better than last for some reason. As long as your gettin your birds some good flights though, an old gamekeeper once told me that if its quantity of quarry your after hawks aint the best choice, go lampin !

Hi Adeboy.

I am in sunny Lochgelly. I fly a male Buzzard. Not keeping him at home at the moment but he will be back home shortly. Soon as he is back I'm going to try and get some rabbits with him, Wish me luck.

Hi there only recently joined the site on my return to the UK, are there any other flyers in this area who fly the larger birds.

Not sure if its me or you who's confused but Newburgh is in Scotland.
