Um, I aim right at the bird's body, and I hit them. I do not take wind and other things into consideration. If you're going to "eradicate" house sparrows from a bird feeder, sit down, be quiet, and aim for their guts. Walking around showing people why you're missing isn't getting anything done. Y...

Yeah, try sitting down with everything pushed to the side like that.

mytool46: Um, hate to grammatically correct you, again, but, you don't follow one word that begins with a vowel with another word that begins with a vowel: "You keep using "a" adverb instead of using a pronoun". Should read: "You keep using an adverb...". : ) Peace.

CAmoviefan: I'll weigh-in here. The hawk is doing it's job, keeping other species in check. Now, if you want to discuss killing for no reason, we can discuss how man's introduction of the starling and/or house sparrow and their killing ways have impacted our native cavity nesting species: bluebir...

Now, if we can just get people who want to protect bluebirds to be more aggressive. Meaning, there are still people who just won't accept that starlings/house sparrows are the very worst enemies of our native species. They expect to just "shoo away" these flying pestilence, when it actually takes...

I used to do something a little similar. Instead of feeding swallows, I was helping them feather their nests. My mom and her sister had laying hens, and I would gather all of the cleanest feathers, take them to our neighbor's huge front yard --with his permission-- when it was about time for the ...

These are not nesting boxes. These are yard decorations that should not be accessible to "just anything". No bird that I can think of, except for house wrens, house sparrows or starlings --here in North America-- would use these "bird houses". These types of "bird houses" should have the entrance...

I've looked at the site, and, I'm sorry, but I wouldn't purchase from them. They have a "house" labeled: Robin house. Sorry, but our American Robins don't nest "in" houses. They use platforms. And, too, these houses are more for decoration than anything. The entrance holes are huge --a starling c...

What the customers don't know, won't hurt them. : )

Even though the starling didn't kill any of them, it was hard for me to watch, and I haven't since. I've built/maintained a bluebird trail for over 20 years, I know the devastation of these flying pestilence. Especially the house sparrows. I shoot when/where I can (.22), but mostly trap. Just bou...

House sparrows and starlings are not birds, they are a flying pestilence. Extinction!

I hate house sparrows with as much passion as I love bluebirds and purple martins. Just purchased three inbox house sparrow traps to rid my bluebird trail of these flying pestilence.

k.d. is one of the few women who can match Roy's vocals. Not knowing when this was made, she seems as if she's crying over the loss of Roy...

Ikedonis: Which part of the world was your video filmed? I responded to another "Sparrowhawk" video, and was informed, after-the-fact, that the video was filmed in the UK, where Sharp-shinneds don't live.

Pantsboy2, then you need to make it known where in the world, literally, this was filmed. I'm sure I'm not the only bird watcher who's seen this and thought it was a Sharpie. Our Sharp-shinned hawks, in the US, look identical to your Sparrowhawks. And our Sparrowhawks aka American Kestrels, look ...

baezport: actually, it is absolutely real, as I've had two pairs nest in my parents backyard in a box I made. And, even though I cut an oblong hole in the front of mine --intended use as a wood duck nest box-- that's still how the owl(s) would come up to sit in the opening. Nothing fake about the...

Glennis3: Having "an actual card proving they're Native Americans" means what? No other races have to have "proof" of who they are. Whites don't carry cards, declaring they're white. But, when you sit down to think about it, intelligence (or, lack thereof) is actually all of the racial-proof some...

Powerofsonic: I wish I had enough bread crusts to make all house sparrows choke... to death.

Yep, I have one. Works great! I just caught a house sparrow the other day. You have to be careful when talking about killing "sparrows" in-general, and make sure you say "house sparrows". We have so many native species of real sparrows, someone will think you're on a native-sparrow killing spree....

Don't worry Karenpato1, your backup is here. I've been a provider of bluebird nestboxes for 20 years, and there aren't any good explitives I can use to describe my loathe of this "bird". I use a .22 out at mom's; a pellet gun here in town; a repeating trap; and nestbox traps. The only good house ...

TheNina: "Like" how many "like" times can you "like" use the word "like" in "like" two sentences? Why can't you simply say: I would be soooooo happy if I did. I would die inside. "Like" is not a verb.

No insult to Carrie, she has a smoothe vibrato. Ann (and Stevie Nicks) have roof-rattler vibratos. When they hit their vibrato, they not only go to the ceiling with it, but they rattle the rafters. And there are some songs that requires that kind of singing. "Alone", whether acoustic or original ...

He "might" get better at what he calls "singing" when his testicles drop, and he stops squeaking. hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

In reality though, any man his age (30-ish, guessing) that has spent the night sleeping next to a beautiful woman, even though both were fully clothed, is not going to wake up "comfortably". Meaning, not only did she see his morning erection straining against his jeans, but I know he did not just...

Usually only like a very few metal songs, and I do mean very few, and those that I do like, just catch my ear somehow. I never thought I would enjoy hearing a favorite Christmas song done with a metal sound. But this is just awesome. First it was Mannheim, now these guys. Incredible.

Living in the northern tier of the U.S., I've never heard this song before. Never thought I would like hearing deep drum and rattles in a Christmas song. I like it! Even though the Jesuits burnt many of the Ancients in fires for not accepting their religion, it does have a pleasant Jesuit underto...

That BOY is going to give himself a hernia trying to get up to Mariah's octave. You're butchering it. Hush. That's a good lad.
