food safety

all bird eggs are edible. we don’t hear this much, and i assume it is sort of an unspoken agreement among those who talk about wild food, because so many birds are protected, and rightly so, and so few of us can identify the bird species by the bird’s egg, and so spending a lot of time talking about the edible quality of bird eggs might inadvertently turn a bunch of spring wilderness campers into bird-egg survivalists and might therefore make a number of threatened and endangered species even more so.  we can complain that the world has gotten too complicated. but it is we who have made it so.
