    Abstract: The current invention is a bird trapping device comprising a means for luring birds toward a hollow and substantially vertical shaft. The shaft is configured with a substantially closed top which prevents birds from exiting the top. The shaft is further configured with a means for allowing visibility through a second side of the shaft opposite an opening in a first side of the shaft. The shaft is further configured so that a bird cannot maintain forward flight in the shaft and falls through the shaft into a holding pen assembly.
