Too bad more people don't do this. The Starling population is out of hand.

I have quite a few friends that do but it doesn’t seem to do much to populations for sure.

@@Time.for_Goose people typically only hunt starlings so it wouldn’t effect other birds other then probably increase populations as starlings will take over nesting sites of other birds.

That's nice work but in the end Starlings will win. They adapt so well and put so many eggs that that's impossible to control.

How long have you been training your kestrel? How long have you had it? I'm super interested in acquiring a falcon or hawk eventually, where I live you have to pass a test and apprentice for two years first
@RedTalesFalconry Жыл бұрын
I've released this kestrel since the video was posted. I had the kestrel for two years. They train within a few weeks. I'm in the US so I also had to pass the test and be an apprentice for two years. It's a great experience! Best of luck.

Is it allowed to hunt European Starling because it’s an invasive species?
@RedTalesFalconry2 жыл бұрын
That is correct!
@desmondshannon53603 ай бұрын
I hate it when people say (you should save an invasive species) there is a reason there is a pecking order and hunters) too much of one animal can cause problems...there has to be an enemy for everything.

Is this legal to hunt from the car?? I know starlings can be killed/hunted at will, but i thought doing this from the car was illegal
@theheresiarch3740 Жыл бұрын
It depends on the state, but in most states invasive species can be destroyed in basically any way you can come up with that doesn't endanger native wildlife.

You can tell the males from the females as the males have the gray wings vs the female’s red wings
