Feathers

I save feathers that I find in my garden. All of these are from passerine birds or perching birds. The two blue ones are from a Western Scrub Jay (Aphelocoma californica).

This feather is from a bird I have not seen in my garden, but proof that it was passing through: Northern Flicker (Colaptes auratus), the Red-Shafted Flicker.

These feathers are from the Nuttall's Woodpecker (Piciodes nuttallii)

A tail feather from a Spotted Towhee (Pipilo maculatus).

And a wing feather from a Mourning Dove (Zenaida macroura).
