Default Roadkill Moorhen=Spiders

Acquired today, much to disgust of the missus.

Apart from the wings are there other body feathers worth keeping for Spiders?

Don't know why people bother buying fur and feather, just keep an eye open as you drive along .

A few years back I shaved a Badger.
They can't touch you for it.

Anyways; wings only or any other feathers on this here bird?

I have seen a few shaved Beavers .... But never a shaved Badger are there many walking around the Norfolk countryside Isn't it cruel to do this to the wildlife ??

On the subject of the feathers , why not just keep them anyway ?? Put them in a bag ( after treating them for bugs and mites etc... ) and store them for the day when you might just need one such feather .......
