Oh wow, thanks for the info gents. Are they legal to hunt in your area?

Oops sorry just seen this....they can be hunted...but need to put in application for permit to nat Parks and pay up front for the licence....so bit of a pain in the ass...also not easy to hunt here due to there being no sand banks, or much in way of flat areas on river banks....the bush and trees go straight down to the river...

That time of the year again....but as been so dry I have been setting fires since February to April which is usually impossible....was good as could let run and knew they would stop and not burn big areas....this now has changed as too dry, so back to the controlled (well usually unless there is a "technical "...)....burns....not my favourite pastime...novelty wore off long time ago....wouldn't be a very good pyromaniac...

 

[spike.t]

Got a bit warm burning yesterday....usually around 46c in and around it.....

Below is screenshot from video yesterday of the fire coming towards me...I was in burnt area , you can just see the fire from my side bout to meet fire coming towards me...unfortunately can't put the videos on....not a clue how....

 

[Hunt anything]

We control burn some pastures every other year or so and it can get pretty scary at times! Especially when your house is on the adjoining property!

I had one get away from me this spring. Had the fire department and forest service out. Embarrassing, but no great harm done.
