"Macro Mondays" this week's theme "Summer Olympic Sports" HMM
Since 1992, badminton has been a Summer Olympic sport with five events: men's singles, women's singles, men's doubles, women's doubles, and mixed doubles.
The shuttlecock cone is formed from 16 or so overlapping feathers, usually goose or duck, embedded into a rounded cork base. The cork is covered with thin leather. To ensure that shuttlecock rotate consistently, only feathers from the birds' left wings are used. Feather shuttles may come off the strings at speeds in excess of 320 km/h (200 mph).

The only editing I did was sharpening,cropping and a little color boost.Love the Nikon D2H and the Nikon 70-300mm vr.The orange color you see was a car.

Macro Monday's theme is "low key".
These are three macaw feathers (two down feathers from our Green Wing and one small feather from our Hahns-mini macaw). The total frame measures about 1 1/2 inches. I placed a measurement photo in the first comment box.

Feeding birds are forever retreating suddenly to their hideyholes when spooked on our patio. But there is no need to call in Scotland Yard's Flying Squad... A tiny telltale feather clinging to the leaf of our Clematis montana has given away one of their haunts ... :-))
A windy day on the lake… birds had to fight against the cyclone, there were ripples and small waves on the water… but this feather stayed stable and on her own - have a great Sunday ahead….

My friend Tom and I were sitting in this rowboat watching a colony of egrets go about their business of building nests and sitting on eggs, when we notice this very active bird flying around with a feather stuck to its toe. He would go pick up a stick and deliver it to his mate and then repeat this with the feather fluttering behind. Because they all looked alike from our vantage point, this one we could keep track of. Here it has dropped off the stick and was heading back for another.

Glass eyes and porcelain skin
Look to her and think of sin
Her touch is like a hazy dream
Her mind is in a world unseen...

A stern looking Javan myna is protecting a feather it found. In Fort Canning, Singapore. It got too hot for sightseeing. So I stopped to look for birds in the shade.

Early morning dew drops on a Collared Dove feather, magnifying those intricate details quite nicely too!
Listen: like a feather - Nikka Costa
I'm coming out of my wishing well where only echoes lonely hear my prayers
I'm coming around to bend cause my resistance been to persistent
I've come to far to force it so I'll watch it slide and land
I could come on strong and willful but
I'd rather watch it fall to the palm of my hand
and when I set it free like a feather it will be
and when I rise to see it done like whatever it will be, it will be, it will be, yeah
I'm taking a breather baby from sitting on pins waiting for my sky to fall
I'm taking up giving in so here's the wheel, I'm putting my feet up
take another look at me baby today I'm taking on catastrophe
I'd rather take it easy then try to force what's on its way to me
and when I set it free like a feather it will be
and when I rise to see it done like whatever it will be, it will be, it will be, yeah yeah
we're only afraid if we pull back the blinds too far
the lights behind that we free will blind other stars
but the truth doesn't blind it helps to see far
so get ready to be
who you are
Thanks Tomis :-)
on a parrot feather (Crimson Rosella I think).
Macro Mondays: Feather
Brought Grandchildren home with us for a few days of the school holidays so catch up as soon as I can.
With the feathers you are found, you can build yourself something beautiful. I was lucky to get some pale lens flares too.
