I love using fishing nets to catch the birds. I even have multiple sizes of nets and lengths. Maybe try collecting them after dark when they are roosting.
I thought you like fishnets for other activities!!

Got between 8 and 9 hours of sleep another night of that and watch out

kind of adds to the comment above

fish nets RULE

and a true multi-purpose tool

pantyhose and the like work great to hanging onions I have friends save those for me as well. drop an onion in tie a knot and repeat. then hang on a nail in a cool dry place can keep for almost a year that way.

I think she meant the heat duct for the forced air furnace running under the floor and into her bedroom.

the pipe under the house that leads from the furnace to each heat vent in the house. under my room it was crushed and broken. cats I suspected but not sure how they would break a pipe. I was getting very little air flow and it was blocked with the insulation. So what I was getting was flowing through the fiberglass.

Poor things. My dad went hunting long time ago when he was a cadet with a navy buddy. They were driving, the guy saw a pheasant along the road and he stopped, walked right up to the bird, and blasted it's head off. Dad thought it was very sad and unsportsmanlike. That was his first and last experience hunting. I never thought the birds might have been released. Did they do that 50 years ago?

It was calm enough. I was walking and taking pictures. I just tossed it back over the board fence to rejoin the others. I think my SIL released like 30 or so and not a single one is still hanging around. The coyotes ate well with those ones. She raised them too close to the house though and they weren't afraid of cars at all. Would have to stop, get out, and chase em off the road.

Dunno about 50 years ago. Pheasant are usually fairly flighty, but we've had chukar literally stand next to a target we were shooting all day. Those things are rather dumb lol I plan on picking up some albinos next year from a friend.

Thought so, I know they are Chinese Ringnecks, but want sure if they were 100% introduced. Thanks
