Does anyone know what the federal regs are on Magpie feathers? Are they protected/not protected? Legal/Illegal to have?

Protected.....hell, everything that could be deemed "Migratory" is protected.
Sparrows, Starlings, Ravens, .....etc.
Stinks, but, I guess it's for the bird's own good too."This next song goes out to some girls in dot com. They don't know who they are, but, it doesn't really matter anyway."

migratory, songbird,raptor or scavenger.. all protected and game foul has it's own set of rules... You can go to the fish and game or federal wildlife websites and always check.. But Mr. Bo.. Sparrows and Starlings are NOT protected because they are not indigenous and are considered pests. Same with pigeon and wild dove.Don't worry that it's not good enough for anyone else to hear... just sing, sing a song.sigpicComment

protected or not......I see magpie wingfeathers all over on the pow-wow trail. I'm sure the same exceptions apply where they are allowed for ceremonial purposes.Last edited by Furiously-Fancy; 03-24-2005, 10:16 PM."I'd rather be @ a POW-WOW!"Comment

Yep I agree with Woggs, if you want magpies, they're all over the place over this way. Seemed like we even used to have a men's basketball team called the Magpies....

I know this is a Magpie thread, but does anybody know the regulations on yellowhammers/flickers? See them all over powwow trail.
Why must I feel like that..why must I chase the cat?

yep same rules apply... Actually if you have fallen magpie or flicker feathers and you have a eagle feather permit.. I was told you can call fish and game and ask them to add those feathers to your permit. It's up to fish and game whether they will or not.Don't worry that it's not good enough for anyone else to hear... just sing, sing a song.sigpicComment

I collect feathers on my walks. No eagles, hawks or even turkeys for that matter. Usually I find duck feathers,some feathers from songbirds. A heron feather if I'm lucky. I was thinking of making a fan with the duck feathers. They are small but very beautiful.
I usually wash them and let them...03-10-2008, 08:43 AM -
I learned a lot recently about eagle feathers, and I thought, "Hey, maybe someone else will wonder like I did, why not write it down, just in case?" So here it is.
I had emailed the DNR here in Minnesota asking about the laws concerning eagle feathers, and specifically whether...05-05-2016, 09:00 PM -

I'm constructing a new bustle and I'm having a really hard time finding any good feathers for it. I havent earned the right to use Eagle or hawk feathers, and all the turkey feathers I can find are only the common barred ones.
