But this one looks fresh.... Captain Logged John Holmes BBS Member BBS God     Posts: 103 Re: Shotgun Cartridge « Reply #3 on: Jul 31st, 2006, 11:14am » Quote Modify The technical term for these is "Shotgun Cartridge"   I've seen a few used shotgun cartridges in Long Valley over the years.  These plastic ones (some are made of cardboard) can last for a long time. You'll probably find that the base of the cartridge is quite rusty.   Hunting wasn't banned in the New Territories until about 1980, and I think this may be from those days.  It would very bold of someone to fire a shotgun in the area in 2006, and even bolder to leave the evidence behind !     I suggest that Catapaults and Mist Nets are what we should be looking out for....   John Logged http://johnjemi.hkbirds.net/ Pages: 1  Reply Send Topic Print Forum Jump: ----------------------------- Announcement 簡訊通告 -----------------------------  - Membership Affair 會員事務   - Outings / Activities 戶外活動 / 講座   - Projects 項目計劃   - Crested Bulbul Club 紅耳鵯俱樂部 ----------------------------- Discussion Area 討論區 -----------------------------  - General 一般問題 => Conservation 自然保育   - Bird Identification 鳥類辨識   - Birding Reports & Tips 觀鳥報告及心得   - Photo Gallery 相片分享 I   - Photo Gallery 相片分享 II ----------------------------- Special Topics 特別主題 -----------------------------  - Wild Birds & Avian Flu 野鳥與禽流感   - Sustainable Management Scheme in Long Valley 塱原可持續生態管理計劃   - Black-faced Spoonbill 黑臉琵鷺   - Goodbye Penfold 告別彭福   - Tern Conservation 燕鷗保育   - Black-eared Kite 鳶(麻鷹)   - Swifts and Swallows 燕與雨燕   - China Birdwatching Network 中國觀鳥活動網絡   - Winter Altas Survey 冬季鳥類普查   - Nature Conservation Policy 自然保育政策 ----------------------------- Knowledge Sharing 知識分享 -----------------------------  - FAQ 常見問題   - Archive 資料重溫 « Previous topic | Next topic »
