    There are four different licences under which we might operate... the quarry species are not necessarily the same on each one.

    Isn't this just the rules that those taking birds for the 4 reasons about must adhear to. Hunting for sport or food doesn't really fall into any of thse categories?

    You can't shoot wild birds for food or sport, only for the reasons stated on the licence, game birds excepted of course, but they need a specific licence I believe.

    Ftwizard,

    Game licences are no longer required, but can still only be shot in their relevant seasons and not on Sundays or Christmas Day or without landowners specific permission where you have shooting permissions.
