Love to see one of those flys! We have lots of road kill coyotes out here in the high desert and I always wondered about the tails.... What about Alpaca's or Llamas? Their hair any good for flys? I was given a half dozen Peacock feathers by our post marm last week. Greatherl but small eyes. Jim aka daffy the deserttrout
