Starlings got lucky….

[L.Leon]

Went for a great Fathers Day tandem ride with my wife and came back home to relax the day away. Those four starlings got lucky as I was feeling peaceful. Typically at my permissions I give no quarter. The Atomic XR was willing and able, chomping at the bit, me? I must be getting old and soft. They were about 30 yards away… easy picking for the Atomic XR.

You're a peaceful man , not harmless and incapable of violence. Enjoy the plinking!

Now they feel safe and will bring their friends over. More targets.

Luis, maybe because it was "Fathers Day" you gave them a pass! What a beautiful day! Nice pics.

I CAN'T DO IT,,,, if I have clean shot on a Starling, it is going down,,,, heck, I even act like a kid when I see one driving around town, stick my finger at them, like a gun , and say pow

Starlings were my motivation to get into air guns

Seems like I’ve gone soft, but will try to recapture the feeling. There was a time when I would go into “instakill” mode.

Next time ask them " do you feel lucky punk, do ya " then take the long shot . I wouldn't mind some starlings showing up around here.

I chased off a large grey digger aka California ground squirrel off the seed a few days back . Thought for sure he would be back, but some are smart enough to stay away. I let them eat a little seed but only give them 3 chances to leave and that's it.

Am waiting for the woodchuck behind the barn to slip up. It “will not” be getting a pass…
