[obol] Cardinals in a cage

[Harry Krueger]

"I don't know if a cardinal would ever fly up high enough to get blown to
Oregon but I think the chance is very slim."

Nope, pardna'  We all in the great State of Idaho would shoot 'em all
down...during goose hunting season...or some such season for exercising our
God given right to shoot anything that moves.  Why, if God didn't want us
here to shoot 'em, why did He make'em red?  Yup, as my good 'ol govnor Butch
and me always says..."Better dead than red!" :)

[So now you have the real reason why Northern Cardinals can't be "wild" in
Oregon... and why Idaho never reports them... only states east of Idaho.]
