Here in Florida they can take your birds. It's a judgement call the FWC can make. they take your birds and later you go in front of a judge who decides. The agent doesn't like something or you ,then he can take your birds. I have several FWC permits, they do come when they want and don't even ask, just come right though the gate and start looking around, even if you're not home. Piss off one who has an ARF tendency and you're in for a world of trouble, and they know it. We have regulations on things like cage size, pen size, evacuation plan, technically you can have your pet parrot unrestrained outside, free flight would be illegal. I live inside a state park with loads of hiker,kayakers, bikes, etc. The warden tells me he gets calls every week about the parrots/turkey/chicken etc. people love to complain. The birds around my house have it pretty good. Heck the tom turkeys love to see what stupid human tricks they can get the gawkers to do. They strut and gobble for fools all day long.Someones bound to complain about the poor turkeys inside the fenced yard. You're lucky wendy, at least they knocked.

Holy smokes, Captain, I had absolutely no clue Florida had its own very strict rules! And boy-oh-boy you've got some gutsy wardens to 'just' walk onto your property. Is it because you live in a State Forest?
