  I think this is really sad, it just speaks volumes to me that when humans 
have guns how they destroy things with such hate and vitriol.  Ag, shame.

    Have any of you seen robins near your house? I mean like a few hundred of 
them at once? Two mornings in a row I have heard loud constant chatter at my 
house. I go outside and find the trees full of robins. Today I found about 12 
robins hopping around on the driveway across the street. What?s causing them to 
flock here? We do have holly bushes and a pear tree with fruit on it. 
     
    Also I heard some outlandish news from the Netherlands. A house sparrow was 
killed by an air rifle because it flew near some dominoes in a row and knocked 
over 23,000 of them with one swoop. I was surprised to find that this bird, a 
nuisance here and not protected by law, is on the endangered species list in 
the Netherlands. Can?t we ship a few hundred of them there?
