Filby birds & a cruel 19th century anachronism

At Filby broad-no sign of Smew but a group 104 Teal & c40 Tufted Duck. From the Filby Boardwalk a female Goldeneye swam out from close in. At Ormesby Little Broad the Red- necked Grebe from lookout, initially seen swimming out from the reeds it swam right past us showing us the best views yet of a bird I first found on Rollesby Broad and it was then flushed to by boat it swam towards us and the the boat flushed the bird and it flew into the channel and was later seen by the channel by the by bridge to the east of the road, We later saw a buzzard and 20 Tufted Duck to the left of the boardwalk. Unfortunately shooting was heard in the woods just west of Filby Broad and in the woods just east of Ormsby Little Broad, 40 Tufted Duck disturbed by the shooting flew up from Lily Broad. Shooters everywhere & ones in boat that had flushed the RN Grebe, beaters were in the woods just beyond and a poor unfortunate Pheasant was shot by one of the unmentionables in the boat, feathers seen drifting on the air and the poor Pheasant fell into the water writhing in agony into Broad seen for several minutes before it died in obvious agony, the unmentionables in the boat rowed over and picked it out of the water- v.distressing events to see and I will not let this rest.
