[QUOTE="NomDeBoom, post: 3796423, member: 50898"] I'd imagine that a bird that is that active, & on a high meat diet- mostly reptiles, would not only taste 'unique' to our palate, but would be tough as old oak pallet...[if I'm wrong; it's likely one of the few things I'll go to my grave not knowing ;-] Besides, Racing Chickens are protected (N M State Bird). >>>Reminds of this Forest Ranger WAY up in the Mtns.<<< He smells smoke, & sees a little wisp drifting out of the mouth of a small cave, high above, in a cliff. After a rough climb, it smells more like a BBQ. He cautiously enters to find an old, bearded Hermit. 'Hey, buddy. You know there's no fires aloud in this forest?' Hermit explains that, after living out here 57 years, he mighta forgot. 'Whatcha roasting on that spit? Looks like a big bird.' Hermit admits that it's a Golden Eagle. 'Sir, those are an endangered species- but what does it taste like, anyway?' Hermit strokes his beard thoughtfully, and explains that, to him- it's like cross between Spotted Owl & Peregrine Falcon.
