Re Magpie Geese

["Steve Popple" <>]

Yes the season was extended by a month this year, it is based on breeding
recruitment which is why the season lenght varies from season to season.
Possibly a vote getting exercise but the number of shooters is actually
quite small. I'm not condoning the hunting of Magpie geese but the numbers
of birds killed is only a small percentage of the population. Steve
