The feathers on a fledgling are commonly referred to as "down" feathers and "juvenile" feathers. Down feathers are soft and fluffy, providing insulation, while juvenile feathers are more developed and resemble the adult plumage but are not fully grown. As fledglings mature, they will gradually replace these feathers with their adult feathers through molting.
