The commission said that New Year's Eve revellers shooting off fireworks in the area could have startled the birds from their roost and caused them to die from stress.

What an ignorant statement. Perhaps stupid is a better description of that part of the statement.

How many PETA persons are on the commission?

That would sure solve the lead shot problems... just don’t load any shot and let the report of the shotgun scare them to death.

That really is a remarkably stupid explanation, isn’t it?

If that’s the case, why do I use a whole box of shells to down 6 doves?

Besides that I’m not such a good shot...

What an ignorant statement.

I shoot bottle rockets directly at a flock of parrots twice a week and unfortunately not a single one has fallen dead from stress.
