Macleod470,

Yes, "jheel" briings back some very nice memories.

There was some very nice hunting in the past though shooting a peacock could get you lynched in some parts of the country - the Hindus worship them. There is no bird hunting, of course, at the moment. I am not sure any birds can be hunted on crop protection permits.

The Pakistanis have been much better conservationists and sportsmen. Hat's off to them for their foresight and efforts!
