Trout Hatchery Owner Accused of Shooting Eagles

| | Comments (1)

The oddest thing in this story about permissable evidence in the case against a Massachusetts trout hatchery owner and his employee is that it seems to involve the use of great blue heron decoys. We've never heard of using great blue heron decoys to lure eagles into shooting range -- or even that such things are made -- but if you have, please let us know.

Reader John Koch reminded us that blue herons are used as "confidence decoys" by duck and goose hunters. Thanks, John.
