I get it but the idea that I can't pick a feather up in the woods really strikes a rebel nerve with me It’s reasonable because what would prevent someone from illegally taking the birds and then claiming they found them dead, or if they had a feather fall off one and just claim they picked it up. Too much burden of proof.

Too much burden of proof. I can understand that.......I also understand that I was tracking the other day and ran across a really cool feather that I may or may not have picked up and stuck in my tracking vest and didnt think anything about it......Sure, ignorance of the law, yada-yada.....I know but its just sad that we cant even pick up a damn feather anymore or touch a deer until we notify the correct authorities .....

Dang, Last Friday I picked up a nice looking feather while at a WMA. Have no clue what species it came from but it's not from a turkey. I really like it and was going to wear it sticking from my hat band...

Not personally, but fines can range in the $5k-$10k range. I do know of a couple that found eagle eggs that had fallen out of a nest, thought they were goose eggs. They got a good visit from the Feds on that one. Not something to play around with at all.

Found a fresh killed owl that had apparently been hit by a car. He was in good shape so I brought him home. Talked to the GW about the possibility of getting a permit to have him mounted. He told me it would be almost impossible and get rid of him quickly.

Do any of you personally know ANYONE who has been arrested for possession of an eagle feather? You're on the right track. The possession being illegal is a deterrent. I do know of entities that have paid large fines for violations of the MBTA.

That’s a federal offense, those judges don’t play, unless you are a rich kid raping a drunk girl behind a dumpster.
