George I'm trying to figure out why my rely was deleted.
After watching the video here's what I said.
"The one guy said they taste like chicken"
Any ideas George ?

Look like Song Thrushes to me. No wonder our migratory song birds are in decline! The European Union delight in telling we in the U.K. can and cannot shoot but don't enforce it on their own nationals. And they wonder why we in the U.K. want out independence! Stop the beggars taking all our sea fish as well! Lagopus.....

After everything else is dead, you are only left with migratory song birds.
Served pickled whole from a jar.
Out there doing it best I can.

Below is from a Beretta 412 single-shot advertisement 1950s-60s. Note the songbird call cages. Bottom photo shows French "miroir aux alouettes" (lark mirrors) used to shoot larks. The devices are staked into the ground and a cord is wrapped around the base which rotates when the two cord ends are alternately pulled. Perhaps the greatest destruction of European songbirds occurs in Cyprus and other locations where tree and brush branches are coated with a sticky substance which traps the feet of the birds which are migrating.

The lark mirrors remind me of RoboDucks. You once posted a link to a great magazine article regarding the mediterranean songbird harvest. We don't do that stuff, we just put up wind turbines on the Gulf to kill our surplus songbirds...Geo
