Birds use the feathers "to touch"  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 86/100. codeofuniverse (357) 3 years ago

Birds may use their feathers for touch,using them to feel their surroundings just as cats use their whiskers..the relavtion that feathers have this hitherto unknown function comes from research on auklets, birds that sport prominent plumes on their heads..
