Feathers

FEATHERS

• Provide insulation and body heat.
• Provide flight and mobility.
• Provide a means of communication - flapping, flying and fluffing.
• Provide a way of attracting a mate.
• There are three major types of feathers:

           -    Down
           -    Contour
           -    Flight

• A typical bird's feather weighs more than twice as much as its bones.
