Jumped out of bed a 5 am, 1 hr before daybreak, poked my head out if the window to be greeted by fog. Made my way down to the bottom of the field, out with the thermal, nada. There was a very gentle win from the noth, not the best but still ok, i skirted the edge heading south as i expected the action to come from the west quarter. Checking the foggy field as i went along, dont want to be too surprised. 200 yrds along i tucked into the edge of the forest and waited, running the thermal every minute. I noticed that the wind diwn here was from the east, hmm a curse or a godsend? After five mins i turned my head slightly to the left and there he was, smelling the ground and travelling north, and this is where i was waiting. At 60 yrds i touched the trigger and down he went. As i had my tractor in the next field i gave him a ride back to my camp.
