To many Italians? The [govenor] was appalled that people are just strolling about like nothing has happened. I can hardly believe it myself. Then saw this item; this thing is maybe going to peak(U.S.) early in May. I have a pellet gun and there plenty of birds building nests in my back yard. I think the dove are edible, I don't know about the blackbirds.
Kill all the starlings!

I never ate black birds but I understand the taste is similar to dove but they are scrawnier. I recall that some folks there would target Robins which were supposed to be excellent eating, as well as not too bright which made them easy targets. They were a protected song bird though, and the Superintendent of Schools in the Parish we lived in was busted by the state game wardens with 25 Robins. That was an expensive day.Quote:
