The other night my wife asked how much current it would take to kill a 
dove.  I said I don't know, probably just household AC or less.  Anyway, 
she observed about 15-20 dove per evening coming in to graze on our yard 
and get in the bird bath.  A potentially great idea -   Lots of dove in 
the freezer, no travel expense, no shotgun shells.  They are great 
cooked on the charcoal grill wrapped in bacon.
