While dove hunting, what have you shot, either accidentally thinking it was a dove just in kneejerk reaction when it flew by, or on purpose due to boredom/frustration..... swallows, swifts, martins, sparrows, finches, nuthatches, towhees, warblers, starlings, dragonflies, wasps, bumblebees, grasshoppers, pigeons, crows, trees, squirrels, what? C'mon now, I know there's some collateral damage in the "War on Doves" occurring out there. I came *this* close to wasting a dragonfly about the size of my hand on Monday, but refrained, and there's been a sparrow or two that flew by at just the wrong time in years past - unlucky for them, it was one of my few and far between decent shots (plus they are easier to hit than a dove).
