The feathers, or plumage, of a bird have the following purposes:
- In many bird species, the male's brighter colouring or markings help attract a female
- Waterproofing - most birds have feathers that help to waterproof them against rain or the water of the habitat in which they live
- Camouflage - many birds have plumage that enables them to blend in with their surroundings
- Insulation - some species of birds, which live in colder climates, have feathers which are arranged and structured so as to insulate them better against the cold
