I shoot them off my bird feeders all year long I got 16 about 2 weeks ago Being I live next to a pine forest I cant keep them out of my feeder which already costs me over $2o.oo week plus they run my song birds off, So I check WMA regs and it lets you remove pest. My other way to cook them is to season to taste cover with stewed tomatoes and put in crock pot until they fall of the bone then I pick the meat and make rice to serve over but fried is my favorite.
Nice recipe Mike. Pretty much the way I cook them. I should post my squirrel and andouille sausage gumbo.
