Technical info wanted (1 Viewer)

Hi I was wondering if anyone knew a site that had technical info on different species of birds. By technical I mean number of primary or seconday wing feathers, number of tail feathers, etc. Any help would be appreciated. THANKS!!

This might helphttp://www.birding.com/images/body2a.jpg

All "flying birds have 9-12 primariy feathers (most have 10).
Ratites have more (for display), other flightless birds have less.

Secondaries are highly variable (depending on the length of the forearm (radius & ulna) and ranges from 6-32

Hummingbirds have 6 or 7, most passerines have 9.
Cooper's hawk - 15
Red-tailed Hawk - 17.
Andean Condor - 25.
Wandering Albatross - 32 secondaries.

Most birds have 6 pairs (or 12 Rectrices) (every time I see a painting with 8 rects, I wonder what the artist used as a model).

Birds that have more than 12 Rects are usually birds that use their tails in display.

Peafowl - male-20, female-18, ptarmagan -16, Blue Grouse 16-22.

Data ref from "Fundamentals of Ornithology" by Van Tyne & Berger.

About 1-2% of Sharp-shinned Hawks have an extra Rect (13) (personal observation).

Almost forgot...
Some good Bird Bio info here:

Here is a weblink giving some more information on feathers .

While it doesn't address all species, it gives some good background information that should help. See the section 6.6.

I suspect Banders/ringers publications might be some of the best sources for this info.
