<p>Oh this upset me so much. I out of respect for the bird that has left it - I leave it. But I admire them and touch them. We have many wild birds around here and I do encourage them so my property is full of fallen feathers of all colours. But for someone to make a law that prohibits me from picking them up if I so wished, is beyond atrocious. My thoughts go out to you.</p>

<p>Siyo! I have been gifted a couple of eagle feathers, over the years.. It is considered a great honor to have one gifted to you.. Yes! One should be certified, Govt. card carrying, enrolled American Indian to have them in your possession.. I'm certain there are MANY who do not have these (GOVT.) cards, but who have feathers.. WHY, are the First Nations Peoples, the ONLY race in existence, who HAVE TO PROVE who they are, by carrying a GOVT. card!? Do you, your friends, or the next person you…</p>

WHY, are the First Nations Peoples, the ONLY race in existence, who HAVE TO PROVE who they are, by carrying a GOVT. card!? Do you, your friends, or the next person you happen to bump into KNOW who you are!? I certainly know who I am.. Though a law is a law, this is just actually part of the ATROCITY, that has been going on since 1492! It's amazing, how the GOVT. even up until 1980, was forcing sterilization on NdN women, OR just doing it without their knowledge! It's amazing, how the GOVT. acknowledges the fact that they have STOLEN The Sacred Black-Hills, and have offered payment, but refuse to give it back! Even in the most recent atrocity: The auctioning of Sacred Pe'Sla, in the middle of the Black-Hills! the Lakota, are having to ATTEMPT raising funds, to BUY BACK what is already theirs! Tge GOVT. is the BIGGEST offender, when it comes to LAW BREAKING!! Vtla howa ayelvdi UTSONATI, aquatseli sidanelvhi! ANASGVTI asgalasdi!! :/ Adassligi.. :) (Never trust RATTLESNAKE, my family!

<br />

<br />
LOL Like I said, my brother in law was park ranger now Sherriff so no way I want him busting me! I do not know if he really would or not...but me will just take photos and enjoy seeing them feathers when along the walks. Although today at a carpet repair job the customer had pet turkeys and so many lovely feathers and her son about 6 years old kept handing me feathers to bring home with me....<br />
<br />
Teeheehee. I will keep those…

Thank you for posting this Val. Great info! This is not something most would be aware of...Basically the same laws apply to the sale of flutes and drums. You must be registered in order to infer or sell it as Native American.<br />

I found a feather atlas that has scans of feathers for identification. Not sure if all inclusive but this could be helpful in type of bird identification by feather for those who just do not know how to tell through lack of experience:<br />
