    Alert Guns (hunting) and pilgrims safety

    Good info. If it’s just birds and rabbits, then I concur. In the US, however, unless you are certain it’s just bird season, wearing orange is prudent. Even on private land where I am (Maine) as hunters are not restricted to public land in this state.
