Bill, I beg you not to participate in this crass and bloodthirsty organization. Better to take the high ground and think of the animals themselves. I prefer larger birds myself, but even these small hookbills have the same entitlement to life as do Senegal Parrots and Macaws. The ASPCA will press charges within a few days and I would ask that you respect the rights of avian fanciers everywhere.Spaw
