bird hunting
Shooting wild fowl
Bird hunting is the pursuit and killing of wild birds for sport or food.
Hunters typically use shotguns and often work with trained dogs that flush or retrieve game.
Common quarry includes ducks, geese, pheasants, quail, and doves.
We're going bird hunting this weekend.
Also called birding in some regions, though that term more commonly means birdwatching.
