If i had a quarter for every robin,black bird,cow bird,blue jay, chee chee bird etc. That i killed with my bb gun when i was a kid i wouldn't be working today. The only birds off limits were cardinals, wood******s and hummingbirds. My grandpa would give us a dollar for every brown thrush we would kill that was his favorite. I remember one time shooting a blue jay and breaking his wing my grandpa picked that sucker up and started poking it's tail with his fingers. He said boys get ready and sure nuff that sucker started hollering and blue jays were coming out the wood works we had a pretty heafty gumbo that night. That was a long time ago in the 80's.
