Michael, those Parkers sure get around. :)

Yeah I don't know about people with that last name, my dad always said you can't trust hippies or a Parker  ;)  ;) ;)

its illegal to have an eagle feather? even if you just found it? i would just say it fell from the sky  O:) what about other raptors? i used to have a feather from a peregrine falcon.

Jim Bob, it is a federal offense to possess any part from any raptor...and ignorance of the law is no excuse!!!  If in doubt look up the federal raptor laws.
  It is not the local deer cop but the federal game & fish officers and I'd bet that the ones that will enforce that law can identify the feather by sight.

 But if the local deer cop catches you, he'll give you a fine too. It is also against State Law too. Then he'll call his buddy, the Fed.

If you want to use raptor feathers for personal adornment or decoration on a object Crazy Crow has simulated Eagle and other feathers for sale. The fake painted ones are hard to tell apart from the real ones.  The only time that I know of that real Eagle feathers are required are when warriors dance in the sun to honor their women.
