You the man. Found this.
"They are illegal to shoot. They are considered a song bird. The only thing you can legally kill in Texas other than game birds are crows, grackels and english sparrows and a few other exotics such as the Eurasian ringed neck dove" DILLIGAF If they show up again, I may send my kids out to shoot a bunch just so we can cook them up & eat them together. I might even help them. Next thing you know, everything is gonna be against the law. I careft not.

I learned long ago you can't reason someone out of something they don't reason themselves into.

Is it just me; or are they a dumb bird, you can stand in the middle of them. They're dumb. I shot thousands of them when I was a kid.

Do not remember the last time I saw a meadow lark. A lot like wild bobwhite quail.

I mentioned this to my family last Saturday. I remember in the late 70's through the 80's we would get big flocks around Houston. They loved the hackberry trees. My neighbor would give us a nickle a piece. They would make them like arroz con pollo.
