Thank you too! I didn't mean to single you out or anything, and I don't think most people who play songs to attract birds have the slightest malicious intention

Thank you too! I didn't mean to single you out or anything, and I don't think most people who play songs to attract birds have the slightest malicious intentions. They just think they're giving it a call, and once it sees humans it'll leave and forget about it. It's just a matter of education, not everyone realizes it can actually be quite serious, which is why I wanted to bring it up. It's almost more tragic when someone who truly likes birds and may well advocate for bird-friendly measures and consideration elsewhere accidentally ends up baiting them.
