No, they are literally the dumbest animal I have ever encountered. I had one that I shot at and missed and it just stood there. I walked closer and was amazed that it didn't move so I shot in front of it by about 2 inches. It (the round) kicked up dirt and the bird didn't move. Sat there looking around. I shot in front of it two more times as I walked towards it and it didn't move at all. I got to within 5 feet and was talking to it. "You have about 5 seconds to fly away you dumb ass bird or I am going to eat you". It sat there looking at me even as I sighted in and fired. He was good eating that night. Stupid animals
