10,000 Birds

SEPTEMBER 9, 2011

It really is just too damn dangerous to go there without protection if you’re holding a pair of binoculars, looking like a non-local, and driving up back roads obviously looking for birds. It is indeed legal to hunt certain birds such as Woodpigeon , Chukar , and Turtledoves.

I’ve just finished reading THE PLUME HUNTER (Torrey House Press, December 2011) by Renée Thompson.

Over the winter, the universe lost four whooping cranes to what appears to be recreational shooting: three gunned down together in Georgia on December 30, 2010, and another in Alabama on January 28, 2011.
