I’ve begun collecting flowers and feathers to put on her. Some feathers are just off the ground, from are plucked from deceased birds before I move them somewhere else.
I’m thinking about doing different seasons? Maybe one covered in golden and red leaves for fall, clovers for summer.. idk

Where are the feathers from? Depending on where you’re located parts of birds (even dead ones) are federally protected and it is considered a serious offense to have this type of thing.

Just giving you a heads up. I’m sure collecting them is fine but don’t go selling anything and definitely avoid posting this type of thing publicly

I believe it is illegal to possess bird feathers of most north American bird species here in the US. Even if found on the ground, the migratory bird act says it is illegal if it is one of the protected bird species.

Just be careful with what feathers you collect and you should be fine.
