If one finds a bird roosting on her eggs or hatchlings, it is forbidden to capture her.
(Compare to Mitzva 232 - http://mitzvoh.blogspot.com/2010/09/mitzvah-232-free-eggs.html)
Applies to everybody, everywhere, always.
Verse: "...do not take the mother when she is roosting on the eggs" (Devarim 22:6)
