No person shall trap, shoot, shoot at or intentionally harm in any manner any bird or wild fowl or molest bird or wildfowl nests or eggs. However, if starlings or similar pests are found to be congregating in such numbers in a particular locality that they constitute a nuisance or menace to health or property in the opinion of the health authorities of the City, then in such event, such health authorities may, under the supervision of the Chief of Police, take such action as may be reasonably necessary to abate such nuisance, including the destruction of such birds if, in the opinion of the health authorities, no satisfactory alternative is available.
