The RSPB has criticised a man plagued by parakeets eating his fruit trees for making an online video guide about how to kill them in back gardens.
The video, created by hunter James Marchington for the Fieldsports Channel, shows him shooting ring-necked parakeets after creating a fake bird to entice them.
The clip, named Shooting Parakeets in London, is part of a series of videos providing advice on shooting animals.
According to the online description of the video on YouTube, "The flocks of ring-necked parakeets that ravage the fruit farms and vineyards of the south-east of England are at last under threat.
"They went on the quarry list in 2013. Now they are in the telescopic sights of pest controllers, including the owner of The Bird Table Of Doom himself, James Marchington."
