I think it's not only plausible but highly likely birds may see the incoming pellet. Why not? Just as pellets or bullets may be seen arcing away from a shooter. These birds have good vision and fast reactions to evade predators and survive. The way the sparrow begins to turn at 2:34 immediately ...

Great footage, amazing to see how it's constantly moving, reacting to the wind and adjusting using its whole body so that it's eyes can remain motionless

@deeds1957 One drawback with the HW77 and 97 rifles is that once cocked they cannot be decocked. To make safe the only option is to fire the gun (in a safe direction obviously). This is due to design of the anti-beartrap mechanism inside these rifles, it blocks the trigger whenever the cocking le...

@LamaPaj Yes. The presenter is not applying F=ma in the correct way. If the mass of the person is being used in the equation you would either be calculating the force required to accelerate that person by a given amount or you would be calculating the acceleration of the person due to some given ...

@atlemo I'd recommend trying the RWS Hobby pellets. They're good quality, quite cheap and they only weigh 7 grains so they work well with CO2 pistols and lower power spring rifles

@KassMeirable My advice is to get a kick ass spring-piston rifle first because they are self contained, simple to operate and unforgiving of poor technique. Consistent hold and follow through are very important for spring gun accuracy so springers are good for honing your marksmanship. Then get a...

@HuntersVermin Thanks for this, simple, cheap and effective. There's no point lugging about a rattling whole tin so I normally put a small handfull of pellets in my jacket pocket but I've had them fall out before (sods law in the grass/mud) and they always get fluff and bits stuck to them. Just n...

The HW80 is a very good airgun, robust and well made with an excellent trigger. Good choice!

@pyramydair Yeah, that's a good point. I was only really considering the pellet weight. Well, it's food for thought and definitely an excuse to do some more airgun shooting and pellet testing!

Thanks

Squirrels do eat meat sometimes, I've seen it myself. They play dead sometimes too. This is what I think this video shows, but I may be wrong.

@fabaum22 Yes, I agree other animals do have emotions. It's certainly true that in alot of ways like cruelty, war, messing up the planet etc humans are t...
