A snare on a stick pheasants roosted in trees when released at a near grown stage.

Of course it was dodgy. the Keeper with a gun patrolled at times. 🌺

Re: FS

A man I knew just get a few cockerels and took one up to London each week.

The price he got on the Black market supported his lifestyle.

Re: Sherri

Our meals  often consisted of pheasant or rabbit. well until the rabbits caught the 

myxomatous. I remember one Christmas we had a home reared gander it was

destined for the Christmas Dinner. As soon as it was served we children began

'Poor old Jack.' I think we little cannibals ate it. My dad told me later he did not enjoy

his Christmas dinner

I have never eaten any type of fowl other than turkey and chicken. I imagine that would have been quite a treat for a hungry soldier.
