Ive never seen this before...is it common at this time of year? Yes it's quite common, especially round towns and suburbs, where no one runs larsen traps or shoots the little burgers. It would be very embarrassing for a keeper if his boss saw a flock on the shoot. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeyboots Posted October 14, 2009 Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 if you have a clump of trees close by then there likely to be going to roost in there if so get there about 1 hour before dusk and shoot them as they come into roost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
