'Twas a pretty morning with a hint of chill on the perimeter of the Imperial Gardens. During a long absence, an intruder had nubbled the prized cilantro container right down to the supersoil, and a positive ID was made.

Ground squirrel activity was uncharacteristically light in all sectors (doubtless breeding the next gen of furry animated targets in their stinking burrows), but the watch was rewarded when this unwary perp crept into view at 33y and posed.

Just below the eye (to the left in the photo). This has been a great gun out of the box and this character did not take another step, just flopped. Her Imperial Majesty refused to cook it because of the "ick" factor, despite being cilantro pre-seasoned...

Welcome to the GTA Dave,



Good shootin there, and a pretty lady with her trophy too.



I have the same problem with my Queen, you would think that they would realise, that all meat, fish, and foul, ounce had fur, scales, and feathers, and they all were killed and cleaned to provide food for the Supermarkets to sell ?



Well go figure,.. next time skin it and clean it, and wrap it up in butcher paper, then maybe she will eat it !!! lol

Thanks all, and yes I told her that. If she saw what happened to chickens, etc... but I know I am preaching to the choir.

Mostly they are jacks in her neighborhood and Mr. Cottontail is a heckuva find.
