I pick-up feathers and I use them to engage and teach my students and daughter.  Fostering wonder in young people is an important aspect of preserving what we love into the future.  Let's use common sense folks.  Send the feds to get me if you must.

I said that I appreciate all the information that I get from the
knowledgeable birders on VtBird and I got some info as a result of today's
post.  Apparently, when I brought home five feathers that I  found when
walking in the woods this summer, I have broken federal law.  Please be
assured that the five feathers have already been returned to the woods
(although not necessarily in the place where they were found) as I like to
think of myself as a law abiding person.  My apologies and thanks,Sue, or
letting me know.

With embarrassment,
Martha
