"love feathers" are the yellow or red flicker feathers from the northern red or yellow flicker( yellowhammer woodpecker) that are often tied to a Straight Dancers bandelier . If anyone has something to elaborate or add then please do so. From my understanding they are named so because this bird represent growth and love.

hmmmm.I've never heard of woodpecker or yellowhammer feathers called "Love Feathers". And I never heard of them representing growth and love per se, from my teachings they represent something else and are utilized for a specific purposes. But each to their own I guess

Sorry for the confusion, I meant to say Straight dance the first time around. I was just curious because all I have seen for "love feathers" have been yellow or red flicker but in some old photos from the late 1800's , a Comanche elder was wearing some solid color feathers that were not ficker.
