The turkeys around here all look pretty thin and they run fast too, not sure how to grab one to cook.

the thing that is hardest to admit is
the dam poms seem to be the only ones with logical ( if not a little draconian ) legislation for air rifles
their mark is anything over 12 foot pounds has to be registered as a firearm
if that was 50 foot pound / 60 joules( .22 calibre pellet at 20grns at 1050 fps ) it would be almost perfect
rant starts
sadly here all pcp air rifles must be registered as firearms .. which is mind bogglingly judy collins stupid
some spring guns are in that range of power but no spring gun can come close to the accuracy of a pcp
almost all our introduced pests can be taken down with an air rifle using .22 18grns @ 1050 fps apart from game ( pigs, goats and deer )
air guns have much fewer restrictions so they can be used in built up areas and we can protect our endemics in the city by destroying pests in the city
we can protect our natives and endemics everywhere by having easier access to airguns that have the accuracy to take them out .. not more powerful ( but generally are ) just more accurate
i really do hate that stupid fat dumb braindead bitch

Fuck, now Gavin Newsom will probably limit the amount of air that Californian’s can have.

Munitions laws can become a catch all.
I once "exported" a copy of the encryption program PGP to Anguilla just because that was a felony violation of our munitions laws and lots of us thought it absurd and utterly unenforceable in a world where I could send it to Anguilla with a click.
I once put my religion down as "Jedi" because alledgedly at the time, if 30 or 60,000 other citizens answered the Census question the same way, the government would have to acknowledge "Jedi" as a religion..!?... Seemed funny at the time.. Just like "Boaty McBoatface". Fuck them and their bureaucratic jobs economy.

Tom, why must you kill sqirrels?? What did they ever do to you? I will occasionally stun with them with a BB gun to encourage them to NOT destroy the bird feeders and suet cakes, but they gotta eat too......

It's worth getting squirrel-proof bird feeders. The more you feed them, the more they reproduce, the more squirrels you will have fighting over the food.

We have them but they jump on them and shake them, and chew suet from between the screens. They don't seem to be overpopulating, after 4 years here, so I grudgingly tolerate their meager pilfering.....

I put a corncob on a spring hanging near the bird feeder. The squirrels provide endless entertainment pulling on it and getting yanked off their feet and leave the feeder alone.

Thanks!! I will definitely try that!! If they fall off it's a ten foot drop to the ground below!!
What type of spring? I might have a few small slinky's around that I tried to use by putting them around the poles holding the feeders, but they didn't work for that..

My property is a giant squirrel factory and I leave most of them alone. I like them because they bring hawks and bobcats and other critters I like. They like my place mostly because of the oaks.
The problem squirrels are the ones that get to my favorite fruit trees. Most won't try to get past the cats and dogs but some figure it out. They're busy little things and will ruin every mango, every avocado, every lychee, everything I want to eat, usually the day before I want to pick it. When I figure out that I have one of those, I kill it.
