Interesting. Rats already have a huge mortality rate anyway. Didn't realize swans were a problem but I knew herons get them

Do we even have Mute Swans in the west?
All I ever see are the Trumpeter Swans.

Never mind, now that I look, I see there are some here but, they are mainly an east coast bird.

What Dove Huntress needs to do is get a petition going to get a season on them so I can stop worrying about getting a ticket every time I shoot one.

Wish we could do it with the loons here. Hate it every time the dog brings one back.
Whoever appeals to the law against his fellow man is either a fool or a coward. Whoever cannot take care of himself without that law is both. For a wounded man shall say to his assailant, "If I live, I will kill you. If I die, you are forgiven." Such is the rule of honor.
