Feral dove control

Thanks for that Anthea,
Bravo to them!!
It is a shame that people who go in for quail shooting did not do this and 
leave the quail alone. Being a vegetarian I have no idea about the relative 
flavours but I do know that the Spotted Doves are incredibly easy to trap in 
a 'cat cage' or any sort of cage or crate, don't learn to avoid such things 
like Mynahs and some other sp do, are incredibly easy to pluck - the 
feathers almost fall off and have amazing breast muscles. I used to trap 
them for obligate carnivore pets I had and they loved them. It also reduced 
the number of birds stealing my chook food and spreading diseases and 
parasites to them.
