RookieReeler17 Posted November 9, 2021 Report Posted November 9, 2021 Hello, If anyone has property south of London or up near Sarnia/Walladeburg that has crows flying constantly… please let me know. Message here or text. 226-280-5200 Spent the day in Essex county asking farmers to shoot crows. Many that I talk to haven’t seen much. I know Chatham Kent - Sarnia - Wallaceburg is full of them but it’s a ways to go for me to spend a day asking like today. It’s extremely sad seeing all the “no hunting” signs at farms. Most of the owners I spoke with were turned off because of the coyote hunters. They know who they are - trespassing doing whatever they want. So I got skunked today. If anyone knows of any areas let me know. Thanks everyone.
Rizzo Posted November 10, 2021 Report Posted November 10, 2021 I had no idea crow hunting was a thing. I am aware of the expression "eat crow"...just didn't think people do it voluntarily!
Terry Posted November 10, 2021 Report Posted November 10, 2021 They say you are what you eat so I guess you are what you eat eats and I have seen a crow eat a dead skunks arse , so I’m not going to eat crow 1
dave524 Posted November 10, 2021 Report Posted November 10, 2021 As a teen in the 60's I had a paper mache Owl decoy and a couple of mouth blown crow calls, great fun. Crows really have a hate on for owls, we would prop up the shot crows as dcoys
glen Posted November 10, 2021 Report Posted November 10, 2021 The London area has had too many crows. Farming provides a food source that is not natural and has the population increase to way more then should be present. The increase of one animal due to people creates a problem for other animals. Crows raid the nests of other birds so now other bird numbers are down. the natural environment of southern Ontario is lost forever. People have given advantage to some species. Those are now a problem. either allow management by people or you will have to pay for management. That is your only choice.
RookieReeler17 Posted November 10, 2021 Author Report Posted November 10, 2021 If you haven’t sat in a hedro for crows - that’s too bad. One of the smartest birds there is, acrobatic in the air more so than a goose/duck. Grew up learning to shoot, shooting crows. At one point farmers were paying guys to do it in Chatham. Now every farmer I’ve talked too is gun shy due to trespassing during coyote season. crows are listed as a nuisance who the hell eats them? Like saying people eat coyotes. 2
