Semiplume feathers are a type of contour feather found in birds, characterized by a soft, fluffy structure that provides insulation and some degree of waterproofing. They have a central shaft with barbs that are loosely connected, giving them a downy appearance. Semiplumes are typically located underneath the contour feathers and play a crucial role in thermoregulation, helping birds maintain their body temperature. Additionally, they contribute to the overall shape and aerodynamics of a bird's plumage.
