If old Ben had his way, and the turkey was the Federal symbol, would we be having Bald Eagle for dinner, tomorrow?

Dis-claimer: I am having double smoked ham.

Ben was a vegetarian. He liked eating gruel. It made for gout and easy holiday menus as the backwoodsman would load up the flintlock to shoot them a mess of gruel.

Nice November eagle fat from eating spawned out carcasses. Mmmm...

The question is whether to go hunting at the dump or the fish spawning streams...

i've eaten both golden and bald eagle. Neither is as tasty as a young condor taken right out of the nest.

I’ve always thought barbecued baby bald eagle on the Fourth of July should be mandatory...cue Lee Greenwood
