Actually, I wonder what they would taste like? Passenger Pigeon is good. Spotted owl, tough and gamey. 🙂🙃🫠😉

Our farm families in the sandhills of NE Colorado did eat them in the 40's and 50's. As well as Antelope and jackrabbit and rattlesnake.
Food was scarce during the war.
At that time every low spot in the terrain was a pond due to high aquifer and Cranes summered there in the thousands.
No ponds now; irrigation came along and pumped the aquifer down too much. As I recall, the meat was tough and stringy.
