RE: Attracting Squirrels and Crows.
yes I think they are on the migratory bird list in almost every state,as for killing with a crossbow,you had better have a lot of time and be very patient,I have killed several with a scoped rifle while squirrel hunting when they land above in the trees,but it's pretty difficult to get them to land on the ground in 22short range,their eyesight is very good and they can spot things out of the ordinary very quickly,I have probably doubled my crow killing,since I started using a camo shotgun as compared to a blued gun that they see as soon as you raise it.As some one else said check the season,here in ky we can shoot them with a rifle any time if they are doing crop damage,but we cant use decoys or call's until the september season,then I get out the decoys and the foxpro and let the lead fly and the birds fall,anyway you can killem just have fun and good luck on the crossbow thing,it will definately be a challenge!!
