Starting to see some birds other than sparrows but today two showed up. This little Notos is perfect for backyard plinking.
Interesting that headshots can have totally different results, one flapped around a bit the other almost nothing. Couldn't get a pic
of the one that fell off the feed, the cat beat me to it

Glad to see you joined the cult of notos.

Nice! I've been at war with them ever since the first frost hit. I breast them out (and starlings) for my cat to eat whenever I shoot them, but I have to say - the meat on those sparrows is absolutely clean and delicious! Tried a little piece the other day when I seared them for my cat in a pan coated in olive oil, and it tasted like venison.

Never tried cooking them up but I'll take your word for it LOL
