Feathers are epidermal growths that form the distinctive outer covering, or plumage, on birds and some non-avian theropod dinosaurs. They are considered the most complex integumentary structures found in vertebrates, and indeed a premier example of a complex evolutionary novelty. They are among the characteristics that distinguish the extant Aves from other living groups. Feathers have also been noticed in those Theropoda which have been termed feathered dinosaurs.
Although feathers cover most parts of the body of birds, they arise only from certain well-defined tracts on the skin. They aid in flight, thermal insulation, and waterproofing. In addition, coloration helps in communication and protection.Plumology (or plumage science) is the name for the science that is associated with the study of feathers.
Feathers are among the most complex integumentary appendages found in vertebrates and are formed in tiny follicles in the epidermis, or outer skin layer, that produce keratin proteins. The β-keratins in feathers, beaks and claws — and the claws, scales and shells of reptiles — are composed of protein strands hydrogen-bonded into β-pleated sheets, which are then further twisted and crosslinked by disulfide bridges into structures even tougher than the α-keratins of mammalian hair, horns and hoof. The exact signals that induce the growth of feathers on the skin are not known, but it has been found that the transcription factor cDermo-1 induces the growth of feathers on skin and scales on the leg.

Jack and Kay Chambers are thrilled when the residents of Hadleigh Corner welcome them to their new home with open arms. But then the neighbours invite them to share their beds too. When Jack and Kay Chambers leave their city apartment for an exclusive housing estate, they hope to save their ailing marriage. Hadleigh Corner is the rural idyll of their dreams and the newly built house is the perfect symbol of their fresh start.
At first, all is rosy. The villagers are warm and welcoming and the party invitations are flowing. Even their children seem more settled. But as Jack and Kay try to rebuild their relationship, they discover their new neighbours are anything but normal. What starts as a cosy dinner party suddenly turns into a night of adult party games with absolutely no limits. What's more, the perfectly polished and manicured estate hides a terrible deathly secret. As the truth about Hadleigh Corner is revealed, Jack and Kay are torn apart and caught up in a nightmare, which will change their lives forever.

Hey little one, think about our time
When all the pain we've overcome
Hey little one, think about a time
When all the boys are older.
All I'll ever think about is you
And you'll be there when we are through.
And all are drinking from our hearts
Of all the love that comes apart
Is all for you or all for ‘I'?
I want to wait until we die
You're here afraid yet still you try,
As life for me is life through ‘I'
If all for three is all for five
Then we'll have peace until we die
Close your eyes and go to sleep
Close your eyes and go to sleep
Peace to you...
Peace to you...
Peace to you.
Hey little one, think about a time
When all the waves and oceans rise
Hey little one, think about a time
And all the way, you loaded all your dolls and toys into the car,
...and we are here while you are far
And all I ever think about is you,
It's only father feathers.
It's only feathers.
They say heaven was in tune, your point of view,
I try to see your point of view
The door opens into your eyes
And I have wondered when we die
He won't have due this falling ride
As I'll have to already child
So all for you and all for I
Lets just forgive and let this child...
So all for you and all for I
So lets forgive and let this lie...
Close your eyes and go to sleep
Close your eyes and go to sleep
Peace to you...
Peace to you...
Peace to you.
Peace to you
Peace to you
Peace to all
Peace to you
Peace to all
Peace to all
Generally we are a lonely people
Generally we are alone
Generally we are alone in lonely worlds
Generally we are a lonely people
Generally we are alone, alone...
Generally we are alone in lonely worlds
Generally we are a lonely people
... Generally we are alone
Generally we are alone.
