Stoning the Crows Too Good For Them






Even at the petrol bowser presumably getting fuel the half militarized van was daunting
CROW CULLING
STAND CLEAR
The chap was dressed in an overall type uniform, booted and burly. In the past in Singapore the authorities have invited gun clubs to deal with their crow problem. Noise seems to be the chief irritant. Occasionally one reads reports of HDB blocks besieged by great flocks of rackety birds. For many months the shop-keepers in boutique Orchard Road were suffering from the mynahs scrabbling and squabbling on their rented territory. No doubt it was difficult for shoppers to conduct their phone conversations with the background interference. There had been various schemes mooted for the problem in Orchard, introduced eagles or hawks being one and shooting another. There seems to be almost no sense whatever here in this community of ramifications from such attitudes and actions.
