Shot this starling at 53 yards

[tyroneweaver]

FX compact in .22 cal
16 grain jsb's
Arken 4-16 scop
Firefly recorder.

Probably could have spent more time on focus. But starlings can be jumpy.
A bit breezy so i aimed about 1.5 inches right.

Psh! I can hit a Mountain Dew can at 50 with a 9mm pistol. They don't fly though.

I know but it was like.

I'll put a suet cake feeder out at 25 yards and when they attack it I'll work on them with a .177 Diana 34 (I use irons) with Crow Magnum pellets.

LOL....I keep the resident fox and possum happy.....I don't even have to bother picking them up....Gone by morning.

I shoot them shit birds off my feeder from about 30 feet with my Daisy Red Ryder BB gun. They fly off but I find them dead later some distance away.

Excellent kill .. was it a .22 LR? What scope and camera were you using to film this epic event? I call Starlings terrorists!

My favourite is Freddy -- left hand side , 403rd from top . The one who is smiling .

Yeah, it's a crow but it reminded me of a Starling when I saw it.

How did you feel after killing the Starling?

Does the feeling of accomplishment become greater or lesser after each kill?

Are you ashamed of your personal feelings after making each kill?
