WHile I would never "roost shoot"a bird in JW's case IMHO JW ,yes I would,if its a clear safe shot!!!In fact I've done it in the fall!I hunted a flock of birdsthat they were notorious to come in and than fly up in a tree specifically to get a better look at the bird/hunter they were hearing!I've seen many a gobbler jump up on a stump or tree trunk blowdown to get a better vantage point to see also.Two completely different situations in my book!!
