Power poles out in the (treeless)country sure haven't helped the grouse any.
Seagulls are the worst when they follow the swather around and pick off pheasant chicks. I think some guys carry a shotgun in the cab for that very reason.
We've got a few little super speedsters that will drive bomb the cows when they are lined out feeding. Zoom down, flush and pick off the occasional cowbird or starling.
I've tried getting a pic but they are way too fast.
They only get the sick and old. No problem if you dont like prarie chickens, quail, etc.
