alchemybynight: bestrooftalkever: Two bald eagles in air battle crash-land at airport Dude these two eagles were fighting mid-air and got stuck. They crash landed at an airport and both survived. How hardcore is that? Look at their faces tho. Its like “I swear to GAWD Jerry” Wheeler: “Did you know that bald eagles are known to engage in a bizarre mating ritual where two eagles fly upwards, lock talons, and fall towards the earth while rotating, separating almost before they crash into the ground, if and only if they consummate their bird fuck. If they don’t, they are willing to accept their death by hard ground. It’s the ultimate race against the clock.” Stuck, riiiiiiiiiiiiight

bone-lust: Bone & Taxidermy Collectors & Artists Please Be Aware Of This: It Does Not Seem To Be Common Knowledge By Far Too Many People. Posting this again because I’m getting a lot of requests lately for wild bird skull, foot/talon & feather jewelry. And because I’m getting a lot of found wild bird processing & preservation questions. Please Understand That The Migratory Bird Treaty Act Was Created To Protect The Birds On The List - At the time is was created in 1918, birds were being quickly killed off and some are now extinct. Because of hunters, those using their feathers in their clothing/hats, from people collecting mass quantities of birds for their natural history curiosity collections and even people collecting their nests & eggs. Most birds protected by the MBTA are very common every day birds many of us sees outside here in the US. They are not often endangered. That’s a misconception about the MBTA that many don’t understand. But at the time it was created those same species were in critical decline nearing extinction. With taxidermy, natural history collecting and such being a huge trend again I’m glad the MBTA is still in effect. Otherwise it could all easily happen all over again. So in summary - if you find a dead bird find out what species it is and see if it is MBTA protected. Protected Species: You can not legally have the bones, feathers, talon or any other part of the body. You also can not have the nest or eggs. Over 800 species of birds are protected. You can be fined and do jail time for having these illegal items. If you make jewelry/art from them and sell them there is an even higher fine. I see so much illegal bird jewelry being sold on Etsy alone. Be careful. Even if you did not make it you can still get in trouble just having it!
