It's weird; the first 2 look like reverse images of the same feather.

I've been using those for a couple of years, both male and female.

Re: Mearns quail
Very interesting bird indeed. I can think of plenty of uses for each of those feathers!
Salmon tyers fancy this bird I believe, and for good reason!

Scott, I'm sure you'll put these each to dramatic effect. I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with.

Fish when you can, not when you should! Anything short of this is just a disaster.
Re: Mearns quail
I have both male and female bird skins as well. The female skins have some really special soft hackle feathers.
I hate it when I think I'm buying organic vegetables, and when I get home I discover they are just regular donuts.
