I pest those jerks in an orchard. I get about 2 seconds to shoot at them. I encounter them at very close range sub 5 yards. I use my viper express. It excels at this location. I load with steel shot #8 at about 35-40 pieces of shot. We don't use shotguns as it causes alot of damage to trees and the fruit. I found wearing camo helps and painted the gun to blend in. It's hard but alot of fun!"wll"I saw about 12 starlings today... all about 75 yds out flying in and out of an old oak tree. They are the toughest birds to get close to. I has one that did not see me and landed fairly close, and the second he saw me he flew out of there like a bolt of lightning.
Maybe he won't see me tomorrow and land for a minute or two ;- 0
