random fact {no.3}

I am obsessed with feathers.

The sky is like another realm on Earth for me -- one that only the birds truly experience and know by about. I guess that is why I feel that they're almost magical. And to have a piece of them is like having a bit of magic with me too :)

I have been collecting feathers of ravens, magpies, galah birds and cockatoos during walks around Australia. It never fails to amaze me how huge they are! I guess I never had a chance to size up a cockatoo as they're always flying off when I get within a few feet.


This blue feather from last December has been the most intriguing one in my collection. I still don't know which bird it is from...maybe a mallard duck?


Also, I have been awarded the Stylish Blogger Award by Chrissy from Chrissy From America and Valerie from Living Out of the Box!! Thank you so, so much ladies!!

Along with silvii tron's tag to share seven random things, that makes 21 random facts to share in total! And better still, that means 37 bloggers to pass it on to! :D

random will be my middle name, xo

Hi YiLeen, you have a beautiful name, and matches your unique hobby.
First time I read of this hobby. Very interesting too. never thought of that before.
So? You put them in a glass case with names of the birds.....just like those butterfly collectors.
Have fun and keep a song in your heart.
