By FULTON LOVELL
A friend of mine once said that with the com
ing of fall frost and crysanthemums, fields become
swarmed with crow hunters.
Rut, spring flowers and crows go together, too.
In fact, early spring shooting can be fast and furious,
and with a lot less competition from the growing
clan of crow-shooting addicts.
Here are some helpful “How To’s” on the
subject of spring crow shooting.
Crows remain flocked right up to the beginning
of nesting, so the first step to a spring shoot is
locate a roost. This can be done rather easily by
traveling the rural roads at sundown and watching
and listening for crows.
After you have located the roosting site, plot the
direction of travel of the birds to and from their
sleeping quarters.
Then seek out a few vantage points along the
travel lanes but don’t crowd the roost. The
birds will put up with a fair amount of shooting
on feeding grounds and flight lanes, but shoot
ing in or near the roost leads to quick aban
donment.
A patch of woods, a brushy fence row, or an
abandoned house or outbuilding offer good hunting
cover. Remember, however, you are dealing with
nature’s number one egghead!
Take pains to add a few limbs and twigs to give
the best possible concealment. Camouflage clothing
and a face mask are worth-while extras in many
situations. And, you should move as little as pos
sible while waiting and shooting.
A few decoys and a good mouth call are necessary
items on feeding grounds. Dedicated crow hunters
sometimes extend their calling range by using a
recording and a battery operated turntable. A handy
way to supplement the decoy spread is to carry a
bundle of 12-inch wires cut from metal coat hangers.
Shove one through the breast cavity, neck, and into I
the head of a shot bird. Then prop the lifelike decoy !
up in the ground. J
Early spring is a period of food shortage for
many types of wildlife including crows. It’s the !
period when the waste grains of fall harvest are
pretty well cleaned up and the new growth
hasn’t started yet.
Choice spots to find crows are in garbage dumps 1
and around manure piles. These places are sought j
out by crows, and you will And them there regularly. I
Don’t j

Well, sure, you don’t want to get smacked
in the face with wet nylons. But Mame can’t
dry them in the basement because it’s full
of dripping sheets and baby diapers.
And don’t tell her to pick a pretty day for
washing. She put it off three times, waiting
for the weather to break.
If you’re smart, you won’t just stand there.
Do something—like telling her to buy the
flameless electric dryer she’s yearning for.
Then instead of hanging out soggy laundry,
she’ll be storing away soft, sweet-smelling,
fluffy clothes.
With the laundry problem licked, she’ll
be happier. The baby will be happier. The
kids^ and the dog can play in the basement.
