Acquiring natural tying materials

Powdered Alum and salt, 50/50 works well for me. Been using that mixture for years. Powder Alum is available at any good pharmacy.
 
I haven't tied flies in 15 years. One of the reasons I'm trying to get back into it is a video I watched about making your own dubbing. I'm disabled and my hunting these days is limited to sitting in my truck seat watching a patch of woods ( I have a handicap hunting permit).I got a couple squirrels and picked up a couple more road kills. I belong to a club that stocks pheasants by the hundreds. I can sit along one of the roads and watch for one to come by. Not a great way to hunt but I can't walk through the woods. Every year I see scores of birds in the dumpsters minus breasts with all the feathers still on.
