Thanks for the clarification. In the picture it sure does look like a red winged. Glad to see folks on here know and are following the rules of the road for pest hunting. In my state, Washington, you have to have a hunting license to even do pest control. Maybe not if it was obvious that a bird damage was about to be eminent. Absurd!! I've had some of the farmers at the permissions say, "If it flies, it Dies." Also had a request to reduce the number of barn cats. I never happen to see any when I am there. However, often a downed Starling can't be found where I saw it drop. Hee Hee!!
