In NY, you can get a 25 bird depredation permit from the department of environmental conservation, easily for a situation like that. The next step is a federal permit, beyond the 25 birds, you have to keep a record of any kills, and submit a report to DEC annually. They love oat grass, I have 25-45 in a flock that returns to a 20 acre pond here, they can and will do some serious crop damage. There is 30 acres of corn planted adjacent to the pond, large operator, I guess he just takes the loss of the bottom rows, which then just turn to weeds, which looks like another weed that attracts the attention of police aviation, like it did last year.
Being in close proximity to occupied buildings, you may have to get creative if using firearms. I get the permit to be covered, I've not killed a lot of them but harassed the heck out of them with some success, oats recover if I stay on them, but corn does not if the nip it low enough. Thing is we never had deer of any numbers, rare to see one or any canada geese here. Deer made a big come back, and it makes things real hard on some agriculture, but the geese are just as bad. I think DEC is fine with eliminating non native migratory birds, not sure what the feds say, never got that permit as of yet.

It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
