Is it illegal to shoot Doves? The Spy type?

I know the wild life and fisheries  set up 'life like' Deer with moving heads along HWY right a ways to entrap people into shooting at them for the purpose of arresting the Deer Fevered Hunter.

That is absolutely amazing!

What would Wilbur and Orville think if they could see aviation today?  I guess it would either amaze them or scare the you know what out of them.
