Hello. I just need to know the area and season to hunt doves or pigeons and starlings near Kitchener Waterloo or Guelph please. If someone knows the area and regulations about it, please let me know. Also i need to know if there is any limit on doves and starlings per day? Really appreciated. Thanks
Starlings and pigeons are easy. pretty much anything goes. No limits, no closed seasons. No restriction on hunting method/equipment.
Doves well a lot more restrictions. Will need a migratory permit along with your small game. Only Non toxic shoot allowed along with the fact single projectile firearm can not be used. Seasons and limits can be found in the migratory bird regs.
You should consider taking the hunters safety course, valuable information on game species, seasons and regulations.
As he said above. But.. are you in an area that allows you to discharge a firearm? Regulation wise I would suggest you just read the regulations to be 100% sure.

I’ve never heard of eating starlings, apart from the nursery rhyme “four and twenty blackbirds baked in a pie..”
Ya, it's a thing or at least was over the pond. When your hungry, you get creative.Quote:

Rabbits are doing very well here them and squirrels over run with them

come late fall till early winter you'd be surprised how good of a meal they are. They carry quite a bit of fat on them and pluck easily. Slow pot roasted and served over polenta hard too pass upQuote:
