Meat is Murder

Since skreeworlds decision to eat meat rarely and only that I am able to stalk, things have moved on This morning I heard through Text that my collaborator had got a pigeon. I slept till 1 then sorted myself out. My first shot at a woodpigeon resulted in a flair of feathers, no kill. Later, I shot a woodpigeon, aiming for the heart. The pellet went through the wing elbow joint and in to the breast. I ran round., The bird was still alive, I struggled to grasp it and pulled its neck.
I ate the bird tonight, giving Tex a few morsals. Taking that commitment, to look in to the animals eyes as you kill is a hard but necessary step to earn the right to eat meat. Since my decision to only eat meat I kill my outlook has changed.
