Hawk,
the decisions being made are the same type of people who would be in jail if they weren't working for the govt. The only reason why people go to work for the govt is because they're too stupid or lazy to get a job in the private sector. Just go to the DMV if you wanna see "cream of the crop" govt. employees. Requirement: half a brain and absolutely no ambition. If you have either, or both, you're disqualified for any govt position!
Pat B:
It is illegal to use or possess any part of a raptor unless you have special permits. If you want to take the chance of getting caught with contraband feathers and are ready to accept the consequences, that is your choice to make. For me, there are too many other sources of feathers to even think about using raptor feathers for fletchings.
Bone pile:
I'll be buried with the feathers I've FOUND they can dig me up and take me to jail but till then none will see them.Is there a list of the off limits feathers ? we have flamingos and roset spoonbills, storks,pelicans ,herons etc.....non are raptors.

Josh:
Yeah, I would like to see a list of federally protected birds. Not just for me but for everyone else that also is new to fletching their own arrows as well. Heck it might save someone from going to jail because as someone said before in this post (I am too lazy to scroll back and see exactly who it was) the game warden isn't gonna let ignorance be an excuse. Just a thought to help out other newbies like me. :)
TRACY:
Billy you got a valid point with roadkills. Why can't a person who finds one get a roadkill permit like they handout for deer? The interstates are littered with owls and various hawk species that go to waste.
Hawkbow, sounds like your game warden is like a growing number of officers and just would rather have so many laws that don't allow activities to make enforcement that much easier on them from day to day. Real shame about your friend that gets harassed for his heritage!
