[obol] [OBOL] "snow at the beach-pesky starlings

[Lars and Gail Norgren]

We used to defend our cherry tree in
Corvallis from starlings with a .410
shotgun. We shot way more than we could
feed our Kestrel  so I looked them up in
*Larousse Gastronomique*. "Any recipe for
"Thrush" is suitable for Starlings".
