Thanks!
Good info to have, thank you. I managed to pick up a few boxes of those 17gr blems from midway, so it will be something for me to watch for.
Cheers!

License
Yes, you need a federal license, since these are federally protected birds.
Each state has it's own laws that are at least restrictive as the federal rules, and usually more restrictive.
