Some Karen called the DNR about a bird trap that I use to trap non native species like sparrows and starlings that can be seen from the road. She called the DNR on the anonymous tip line and said that I was trapping barn swallows in the trap (which is about 400 feet off of the road) and said that she could "see through her binoculars" that it was a barn swallow. DNR agent came out to my property today and filed the claim as unfounded. People today....

Are you sure it was a Karen and not "Brad"?

I had a cop in New Mexico take me to task for trapping pigeons in a public park. He said it wasn't illegal just looked bad....I asked to whom and he didn't have an answer. I had called the DNR and the park department to make certain it was alright and not only alright but the park department wanted to know how many of the damned things could I get rid of LOL. Much cheaper to catch them than buy live birds for training and they need to be taken out of public spaces as much as possible because they are some nasty critters....I packed it in that day but did return several times afterwards and never had any problems other than kids and folks wanting to know what I was doing and wanting to help! We could also shoot collared dove in town and in public spaces with air rifles....nothing like getting a young dog birdy with crippled collared doves flopping on the ground...but you do want to make sure no one is around 'cause flopping birds and dogs being set on 'em is definitely not a good look to a non-hunter. On top of that collared doves eat just like a mourning or white wing dove except it don't take as many of 'em to make a mess of 'em….

What do you call the male version of a Karen?

Shot my buck on my lease in Illinois last season. As I’m dragging the deer out, I receive a phone call telling me my daughter has been involved in an auto accident.

I drop the guts out of the deer, put it on my hitch haul and head to the camp. There I take a shower, pack and hit the road. I drive all night and pull into my driveway around daylight the next morning.

I change clothes and head for the hospital where my daughter is.

Around 10 that morning my son takes my deer to the local processor. After returning from the hospital, I lay down on the living room couch to watch football and sleep. Thirty minutes later I’m awakened by a knock at my door. I open it to see my friendly, neighborhood warden asking to see my license and tags.

Long story short, he cuts me a ticket for illegally bringing a deer into the state from a known CWD carrying state.

I go back in the house and ask my son if he stopped somewhere when he took my deer to the processor. He replies, yes sir. I ask who he saw? He tells me an old “friend” I used to hunt with. It didn’t take long to confirm where the complaint came from.

Judge dropped the cost on the ticket to $200. It was originally $500. Yes, I fouled up but don’t think for a second folks won’t turn you in.
