That looks like it hurt. Do you think that hurt?

That was a comedy statement from some movie I saw. However it has never been proven to me or anyone else as far as I know that dieing doesn't hurt or that even being dead doesn't hurt.

At that speed the pellet would have exited before the bird could even react.

Dead on impact.

I was about 45 feet away from it.
Funny I did the same thing today,look at this headless Sparrow!





Not only did it take of is head,but it got ANOTHER sparrow that was right behind it.
It was the first time I have ever got 2 birds with one pellet!!

Best shot Iv seen, a starling on a tv aerial fell off and hooked one claw on the straining wires and slid down at an angle all the way into the guttering, he was looking around all the way down. very funny at the time!
