These days, bird nets are spread through all fields in Thanh Hoa province. All species of
birds are netted to sell to restaurants.
Tools used by bird hunters. Previously, birds were caught by glue traps but now hunters
use tape recording bird voices as bait to net birds.

originates from southern provinces.
Bird nets are spread at night. Birds are attracted by bird voices from whistles or
cassette tapes to fly into nets.
During the day, bird hunters trap storks. Seeing storks fly, they hide themselves
in tents like this to “control” decoys.
