You lucky dog bushy! We cant even look sideways at that stuff, dead or not. I suspect some of your native friends could use it?

Those would be too cool on hunting arrows man, give it a try. If it was legal Id have you send them to me and I would make some arrows for you. But that cant happen here.

They'd hang me if I got caught, Federal Offense even. There is no way to prove where they came from, nor would they care! Zero tolerance man.

The Great Grey Owl is a VERY Cool Bird...

I say use them Bushboy.
They don't have to go on Arrahs Alone.
There is BIG medicine associated with the parts and pieces of Owls.


Headdress.
Tomahawk Accents.
Peace pipe Accents.
Walking Staff Accents.
Talking Stick Accents.
The legs could be knife handles for Knapped Blades...
You name it.

Don't send them South of the boarder...
Especially if you care for the recipient.
It would open them up to ALL the WRONG kinds of attention from Federal Fish & Game Authorities and the like.

Its a DAMN Shame.
But its the Law...

Good score.. They are deadly quiet on arrows.. Even when they are fletched like a fluflu it won't slowem down.. Be better off on the walking sticks, quivers and such..

Lucky dog.

I saw a road killed red tail hawk on my way home from work today and could only sigh as drove on past it.

That's cool, you're lucky. I think I'd mount the wings spread out so you can see what a magnificent bird it is. The feathers are really too soft for fletchting.
