There are other pests too with which committees have had to deal, such as rooks, wild geese, wood pigeons, etc.
My noble friend says that rooks do a certain amount of harm.
My experience is that when you put in winter corn or spring corn rooks may, for about a fortnight, do a certain amount of damage.
I admit that there is a little doubt about the rooks.
He might find himself on the rooks if he gives a figure that may be invalidated by time.
Is it not clear that many ordinary working people get rooked and find themselves in great difficulty?
I am aware that damage is being done to crops by rooks in districts where there is an undue local concentration of these birds.
There are certain woods in this country where rooks and jackdaws go quite indiscriminately.
