Yesterday: while wandering around the market, I came across a hunting dealer. (Gun meraki: a hobby, passion that starts from the youth and continues.) To be a hunter; I think it has a lot to do with it. I went hunting a lot when I was young. I used to hunt ducks, geese, woodcock and partridges. Of hunting animals; Snipe is a very strange subject. It stumbles upon the hunt, immediately gets up in front of us, it is almost impossible to see what is flying or on the ground. And there is no meat to beat. However, the bird (woodcock) is very interesting. Although they live in wetlands, you cannot see the slightest dirt, stain, mud on their feathers. It is such a clean and meticulous animal. Snipe: our country (Turkey) is generally in the Black Sea region encountered in winter. Snipe: in winter, during immigration from Russia, for rest and break They are placed in our region. On days when the weather is very snowy, they do not continue on their way and take a break in our region. And they seek forage in wetlands. (worm etc.) Of course, industrialization and population growth have also affected those game animals, the migration of birds from Russia to hot regions! Or the migrations have decreased due to climate change. I do not know.
At the hunting shop, the woodcock you see in the photo: placed stuffed. And I wanted to share this beautiful animal and its memory with you by taking its photo.
Thank you so much for your time.
