I would reach into my pocket and select 1 each "cat sneeze" rounds and Aim 5 inches high and crop the bird's head clean off. No-one would hear a sound and wouldn't disturb Mr. Sleeper either!

Nobody's suggested calling in artillery from a firebase yet..?
I was sure, in this crowd of people who think you need a .454 casull for coyote defense, people would be freaking out about trying to deal with a charging songbird.
Danger close or not, I'm not taking chances.
