Birds Feathers – Animals Coloring Book Pages Sheet
Feathers are epidermal growths that form the distinctive outer covering, or plumage, on birds, other extinct species of dinosaurs, and possibly pterosaurs. Flight feathers are found on the wing and tail; wing flight feathers may also be called remiges. Contour feathers cover the body of the bird, providing protection from the environment. They also provide the bird’s coloring. Down feathers are small, soft, and fluffy, and provide insulation.
