Magpie son caught in his cage trap and tucked in with his 34/.22 Harold

Holding a Diana no less? A classic pic. for shure! Tim.

That looks similar to a Grackle except they are all black and slightly smaller. Same shape black beak, etc. That 34 .22 sure hits hard.

They are a relative of the crow {corvids} and darned smart.I shot lots of grackles and cowbirds as a kid back East on the farm.......................Harold
