One day’s kill of sharpshinned hawks

Protecting Game and 
Migratory Birds 
How a State Game Warden Sets a good Example 
By CURREN HAWKINS 
VERYONE should have an inter- 
E. est in our game and migratory 
birds and their protection by 
first making a study of them and sec- 
ond, studying the habits of their 
enemies. 
The State Conservation Commission 
is making an effort to do so, but as 
individuals, a greater effort must. be 
made, namely, by killing destructive 
hawks. 
Individuals, who take an interest in 
birds, can soon learn to distinguish the 
difference between the destructive and 
the valuable hawks. 
The Goshawks, very destructive, are 
the hardest to kill. They are very shy 
and not many are seen at one time. 
They hide in trees and wait for an 
opportunity to make a meal of a 
partridge or spruce hen, and to visit

CONSERVATION written with 
the chicken yards. They are seen 
mostly in the summer and fall and 
often spend the winter in northern 
Michigan, where game is plentiful. 
The close relative of the Goshawk is 
Cooper’s hawk. The latter birds are 
much alike in color, markings, and 
habits, though smaller in size. Their 
food consists entirely of song and game 
birds. Many of these hawks can be 
killed during spring migration. 
HE sharpshin comes next. They 
are very destructive to the song 
and small game birds. They are very 
quick of flight, and though small in 
size, they kill birds twice the size of 
themselves. Thousands of these birds 
can be seen in the spring migration 
season, which lasts about a month. 
I have killed as many as sixteen
