Went out and shot a few birds today

Also like to shoot targets and the odd bird with the air rifle. I'm a pretty good shot with it, if I may say so myself.

To eat or for "sport" ?

.

Sport Not really interested in eating my kill, but I'm more than happy for someone else to. Better than just throwing it away.

Sorry mate - but I just can't understand the desire to kill something just because you can.

To kill for food is one thing, but for the sake of it . . . ? ? ? ? ?

i shoot, but only targets. i find targets good fun & have no desire for blood yet.

Nice pics Steve - what camera did you get in the end ?

I got an EOS350D, it made sense as I still have my original EOS620 (which is really getting on now) so the lenses fit. Need to get something a bit better in the way of a lens for this birdwatching stuff though...
