Let's say you found a feather on the ground. Did you know you can identify WHERE on a bird it came from, just by looking at it? Let's learn how! Please subscribe to continue learning what makes life AWESOME: https://BioBush.tv/subscribe In this video we talk about the seven types of feathers and show examples of each. Flight - big, solid feathers that are very uneven around the central rachis Tail - big, solid feathers that are more even around the central rachis Contour - medium-sized curved feathers that cover the bird's body. Semiplume - fluffy, insulating feather with a central rachis Down - fluffy, insulating feather without a central rachis Bristle - a central rachis with no barbs (like a bird whisker, but a feather) Filoplume - a central rachis with a little tuft of barbs. Present on almost every part of every bird. Nobody knows what they do. I hope this helps you next time you find a feather on the ground to get close, investigate, and make predictions.
