    they are fair game for a week starting parrie weekend. hopefully, like the spur winged plover, they get removed from protection schedule and we can bang on them anytime. certainly are in massive numbers in areas around here. I have also noticed more ducks around the wetland this summer and even saw a bittern for the first time so maybe that is down to having less "pooh kakers" haha
    If i could have a full time job shooting pests i'm up for over time.
