My Random Thoughts on Small Game Hunting with an Airgun

[Luis Leon]

@Luis Leon is a machine! Neighbor was complaining yesterday about all the crows making a ruckus at dawn every morning in his backyard. And I thought, what would Luis do???

Before I could expand on the thought (I'm a lil sllooowwww), he says "So, those airguns of yours could probably do the trick, right?"
Either he read my mind or was tired of me not taking the hint

When we first moved up from Brooklyn 26 years ago, a murder of crows would make a racket in the two giant black walnut trees in my driveway. So one morning got up very early and had the crosshairs centered on one. But, didn’t send the pellet because they were making way less of a racket than the city noises I was fortunate to escape. So they got a pass…

My neighbor has been trying to get me to take out all of our squirrels that are destroying her garden. I told her that shooting yard squirrels is like shooting pets, I just can't do it. Plus they are good exercise for the dogs. She is not happy.

electric fence wires do wonders on keeping things out that climb

Years ago had an original KAREN type neighbor whose life mission was complaining or so it seemed.
One day she asked me if I could dirt nap some of her once cute, but now wayward visitors?
Seems those little wonders that she had fed were now attacking her prized and expensive roses.
I thought to myself has hell in deed frozen over? Anyway much later there was a wonderful Christmas basket and my take away was this, as we stumble forward we must always remember we are all ambassadors

To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: Ecclesiastes 3:1
