Queso won't let me help with his pin feathers, so I gotta pet a bird with another bird.

Blue’s Tail Feathers Compendium: Tail Feathers for Flight

Wings Part 1 [Standard ]| Wings Part 2 [Atypical] | Feather Markings | Tail Feathers [Part 1] | Tail Feathers [Part2]

I didn’t forget the tail feathers! I was just caught between getting mad at the lack of extensive research into all tail feather types beyond swallow-tails and many anxiety attack :D 

I get asked quite a lot: Are tail feathers important.

Yes! Yes they are! Very important!

There is outrageously not a lot of research on tail feathers and how it impacts flight, lift, drag, or anything else so I had to make my own paper models and use a hair dryer for a wind tunnel to test lift. :D I have so many papercuts now.

I had to split the tail feathers up and make my own chart because there is no official determination or umbrella grouping of different tail feathers. Accessory tail feathers like you see on peacocks and such will be in the second part.

Meet Jasabelle! I'm gonna be fostering her for a little bit. She's a bit of a wonky little bird and the vet says she's rather old (don't know exactly but definitely a senior lady). She's been diagnosed with hypothyroidism and liver disease and will unfortunately need twice daily medication for the foreseeable future 😢 If you're near Perth, WA and have any interest in giving this beautiful special-needs lady a permanent, loving home feel free to send me a message! ❤️
