Since everyone doesn’t get the same treatment for killing an endangered species, how is this justified? How about a possible example....a man kills an eagle for the feathers & most likely gets a heavy fine & a jail sentence. A company owning wind towers may kill several & pay some fines(added to the cost of electricity no doubt) & then years later, the wind tower is trash, plus many yards of concrete. The company may be history by then, so then the public absorbs the costs. Does this sound like justice?

You do know that based on their egg laying, they are a parasitic bird don't you?
Sorry, but if they are caught in my yard then they won't make it to yours........along with the grackles, starlings, house sparrows and blue jays.

Here's why I hate the blue jays:

I might add that four years ago a Blue Jay killed the last chickadee fledgling in the nesting box they were raised in.
Then two and three years ago, they arrived on the same day, May 2 and last year they arrived on May the 4th. Must have gotten stuck in traffic along their migratory route......LOL!
Audubon has a fun app you can download on your smart phone. On it you can track the migratory birds and when and where they are being spotted.
