Fieldsports Journal | Fieldsports JuneJuly 2018
The seasonality and diversity of our fieldsports is integral to their beauty. By their very nature, the array of activities which have us yearning to spend time outdoors take us to some magical places. If we're not crunching across frosty parkland on a game shoot in winter, or sat against a thick hawthorn hedge beside a decoy pattern in spring, we might be creeping through a bluebell wood in search of roebuck at dawn or wading methodically through frigid water in search of salmon or trout. The June/July issue of Fieldsports celebrates this diversity in all its glory...
A few issue highlights:

The call of the wild – With half a nod to the blue grouse, Lord James Percy reflects on how lucky we are, in an age so dominated by modern technology, to be able to immerse ourselves in the natural world through fieldsports.
