Who’s Shooting Crows?

“Today 9/30/17 at 11:15am when driving north on Old Telegraph just past B street I saw a Crow fall out of the sky into the middle of the road. I stopped the car and the Crow was still alive. I didn’t know what happened but picked up the bird and moved it out of the street. I also noticed another Crow injured on the ground on the sidewalk. I then heard what sounded like a pellet gun being shot. This shot sounded like it came from one of the 3 houses on Meadowlark that are closest to B street. I drove to the County Fire Department and reported it and also reported it to the Sheriff and Animal Control. I went back to check on the birds and the one I moved out of the street had died and the other wouldn’t let me catch him and hopped off into the bushes. It looks like it has a broken wing and I’m sure it won’t survive. Please keep your eyes and ears open for dead birds in this area and if you observe anything please report it. Whoever is doing this is just shooting birds out of the sky for no reason and next they may decided that family pets are also fun to shoot for no reason.” Courtesy 2RiversParkBlog |
