Buzzards are federally protected birds FTR
I did not know this. Any ideas WHY? They're horrible creatures.
I had one roosting in my box blind before the season. Apparently i broke the law, because he is no longer with us.

The Turkey Vulture species receives special legal protections under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918 in the United States,[8] by the Convention for the Protection of Migratory Birds in Canada,[54] and by the Convention for the Protection of Migratory Birds and Game Mammals in Mexico.[54] In the USA it is illegal to take, kill, or possess Turkey Vultures, and violation of the law is punishable by a fine of up to $15,000 and imprisonment of up to six months.[53] It is listed as a species of Least Concern by the IUCN Red List. Populations appear to remain stable, and it has not reached the threshold of inclusion as a threatened species, which requires a decline of more than 30 percent in ten years or three generations.[1]
Doesn't make sense. They are in the least concern category and carry a ton of nasty diseases but are protected.
Seems like that act is outdated to me.
