NT4710 : A crow trap at Whitchesters Farm

A crow trap at Whitchesters Farm

This registered and legal trap contains 34 crows. Most were young birds attracted down by a live decoy bird and a bait of grain scattered on the ground. I passed by a similar trap in the Cheviot Hills recently with 12 birds, but this is the largest number I have seen in a Larsen crow trap. Two luckier crows (for now) are flying in the distance at the top left of the trap.
