Due to the closure of the Federal Government and the Department of Interior there are no federally protected birds until further notice. :mrgreen:

crows ๐Ÿ˜† well lets just put it this way,I live in the woods,be it chip munks,birds or a pesky squirel,open season baby .this time of year while I set in my deer blind,they are safe.there is no shortage here!

don’t know bout you guys but crow have there own season
arround here and “Crows in the act of depredation may be taken at any time.”

Does that first link work for you guys? It’s giving an error page for me.

Crow’s are free game here in AL. No season or anything, just shoot at em. ๐Ÿ™‚

quote knifemaker:

I gotta get a Permit to shoot a Black Bird? Grackels are every where here shitting on everything! ๐Ÿ‘ฟ

So the law book in our great state says… ๐Ÿ™„

I gotta get a Permit to shoot a Black Bird? Grackels are every where here shitting on everything! ๐Ÿ‘ฟ

Here is the list of gamebirds from same site

Great idea Airtight!

A list of invasive/unprotected species or one of both..

Perhaps a list of unprotected birds would be easier. That list would include:

English Sparrow
European Starling
Feral Rock Dove (Pigeon)
Eurasion Collared Doves.

Other birds can be eradicated with a permit of course if causing depredation to property. These, to include Yellow-headed, red-winged, rusty, or Brewerโ€™s blackbirds and all grackles, cowbirds (does not include cattle egret), crows, or magpies.

Your state my vary.

why why why is the crow protected?
Don’t know about you folks, but around here they are taking over.
Granted around here is a no fly zone for Mr. Crow.
