During the middle of the day, I had just set the thing out on the picnic table in the yard and my wife called me to report another quick catch.
This time, it was a bird. Don't worry, in spite of the awkward looking pose, the little guy was not harmed in any way. I lifted open the door and off he went to warn the others!With that, I pretty much figured PETA would be kicking down our doors before long, so I washed the cage really well and we took it back to our association.

A long time ago I used a smaller cage trap (squirrel-sized) to catch rats out of my dad's barn. I would catch cardinals in it all the time. I always just let them loose, of course. The rats weren't so lucky.
I had this rather large wild pig and young ones at my back door a couple of weeks ago. I was awaken by something slamming against the door and then I heard this snorting sound. Scared the bejeezus out of me!
I had left the back gate opened over night and I guess they took that as their Tom Bodet invite. They dug up several plants some that have not recovered. Still I don't think I will take my chances on trapping...I might end up with acoyote, bobcat, skunk, or chupacabra.
Mmmm. Bacon. Or perhaps some chupacabra with cream cheese.
