*Backyard Pests? Think of Them as Dinner
*
I enjoy game, but there can't be much meat on a sparrow! (And most of
my acquaintances can't tell a house sparrow from any other small brown
bird, all of which are protected species. I certainly hope he knows what
he's trapping.)
Squirrels, rabbits, mourning doves - all of these have hunting seasons
here, but not in town. Maybe I should stick with weeds. After all, I
seem to be able to grow dandelions better than anything else (and I'll
bet this cold snap won't even faze them).
