Thanks for posting this Norm-  I really enjoy Roberts Smith's youtube channel and blog.  The guy really knows North Country spiders!

With possibly one or two exceptions (e.g. it is legal to hunt Wilson's Snipe in most states), it is illegal to sell or even possess most of the species mentioned in this video in the USA.

The original feathers, yes.  He suggests substitutes for most of them, such as Brahma hen for corncrake, woodcock for cuckoo, hen mallard for curlew.  All the substitutes are legal, as I posted in the first place.  (Also, coot hunting is legal here, no sub needed.)
