Your post leaves one wondering about it's motivation .......... envy, or sarcasm? Neither. Sheer different-circumstance happy bewilderment.

WELL . . . You must have a very small apartment I need to wear elbow pads to chop celery, yes. No slight intended, I assure you. I was just, like, where would I put them all?? And how quickly could I eat them? I love, love, love the notion of donating wild doves to a homeless shelter. Wow. Bravo.

Canada is BIG Do you live near waterfowl areas, Ducks or Geese? Thank you Mike p.s. If you are ever in Amarillo, I will show you kindness and a great shooting time.

I have rifles from 17 Ackley Bee to 577 Snider pistols from 22 Harvey K-Chuck to 45 Colt and Shotguns across the spectrum, self-loading, pump, O/U, SXS, in sizes from 410 to 10 gauge. Come play

I'm a block and a half away from the Saint-Lawrence River. I could shoot migrating Canada geese from my kitchen or parlor window, were it permitted. But I'm not an active hunter. I've just got nowhere to put them!

Come play Your extremely gracious postscript crossed my initial reply. I won't clog your thread further, so I shall reply via private message.

"All birds were cleaned, soaked for 3 days, bagged in
water. frozen or donated after being cleaned."
What do you mean by bagged in water? Wondering if you mean you froze them in a bag of water. Would you please describe. Tks.

Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.

Yes,
After soaking in water ( water changed out daily) ,
The dove breasts are placed in zip lock bags
and water added to cover the doves, then any
air is expelled and the zip lock closed.
Then the bags are placed zip lock up in the freezer.
Once frozen the bags can be orientated any direction.
This method prevents freezer burn and extends to life
of the meat.
Some folks prefer a vacuum sealer, but I do not have one.
Thank you for your interest
Mike

Mike: That is how I preserve my gamebirds as well (grouse and woodcock). Very effective. Quart freezer bags work up to even 2 birds that are grouse-sized and then I move-up to gallon-sized on bigger birds (pheasants come to mind, ducks as well). Two or even 3-years in the freezer are not a problem.
