For over four decades Mike has been shooting and chasing the elusive
Wild Goose; mainly the Pink-footed Goose. He certainly knows the meaning
of the saying, 'A Wild Goose Chase and Goose Fever' as he has
experienced it many times throughout his lifetime. Now in his
mid-sixties he has probably seen and been involved in areas of shooting
that will never be witnessed or ever re-lived again. But local reports
show that now even after many, many years geese are still on a 20%%
yearly increase. It must be the most sought after bird in the UK during
the winter months. There are a number of short stories in this book
about his 'adventures' as he calls them and the fun he shared with many
others. Mike talks about what it's like to go Wildfowling and inland
Goose Shooting. He tells of sitting for hours just waiting to see those
magnificent birds as they leave the safety of the estuaries or lochs to
fly inland to their feeding grounds.
