Happy Talon Tuesday! Did you know that birds have multiple types of feathers? Most of the feathers we see are called contour feathers. But birds also have bristle feathers that act similar to whiskers, as well as semiplume and down feathers to insulate their bodies. Orion our Barred Owl molted (shed) a few feathers - can you tell where on his body they came from? | Schlitz Audubon Nature Center
