Ahhhh...brings back memories...........
We usta go out lizzard huntin with the bb guns. This was when we were still a lil young for .22's. age 6 or 7.
I remember one summer, stayin with my grandma. The bb gun stayed standin up in the corner behind the front door. I asked grandma if I could go shoot birds...she said sureeeeeeee....just don't shoot the country birds..only shoot the city birds. (she lived out in the middle of no where LOL) So out I go......sittin right there on the front porch.....and a bird landed on the high line......I took aim.......and shot. To my surprise the bird did a spiral and hit the ground!!!!!!!!!!

I jumped and ran and grabbed it up and took off to go find grandma to show her my prize! All excited cuz I'd actually hit one.
Well......that's the only spankin I ever remember grandma givin me. I'd shot a country bird (blue jay) I didnt know the difference between a country and city bird. I learned real fast after that which ones were which. LOL
