Why are feathers poor conductors of heat?

They were dezined by nature to keep heat in. But if you have ever picked up a duck you would notice it is warm to the touch. Therfore it does conduct some heat. But doesnt let that much escape. Have you ever seen a car radiator or the back of an air conditioner? Thoes little strips of aluminum that look funny if you smash them together? That does not allow heat to easily disperce. Now look at a feather and get back to me.

Why is the inside of a car hotter than the outdoor temp on a summer day?

Like a greenhouse, a car with closed doors and windows is a closed space. Heat trapped inside a closed car cannot get out fast. Although the sunlight heats up both inside and outside of a car at about the same rate, the heat getting inside the car is trapped in a closed space. It cannot get away as fast as the heat outside, where it's an open space and heat can lose freely. Therefore, the heat inside accumulates much faster than the heat does outside, which is why the inside of a car is hotter than the outdoor temp on a summer day.

Is a car bonnet a conductor or an insulator?

Some of each. The "bonnet" of a car (you must be English; in the USA, we would say "hood") is generally made of metal, and protects the engine from weather or stray objects and animals. Because the bonnet is generally metal, it's an excellent conductor of heat. We'd really like to let the extra heat escape from the engine, so we don't really WANT to insulate the hood, but the hood can get TOO hot - so the hood generally has a layer of insulation within the engine to prevent the hood from becoming too warm.
