Another awesome tat style discovery lyric. The feather tat on the woman's ankle is right sexy. Is that a rattlesnake button on one of them?

I see how this differs from ordinary feather tattoos, which you've also covered. There's typically some jewelry or symbol involved, aside from the feather. Voting this Up and Beautiful.

*Alastar, thanks again for coming by and for the comment. They look good on women's ankles for sure. I am pretty sure that is what it is. That was my guess.

*Alocsin, always great to see you. You got it. They are usually associated with Native American Indians jewels, stones, arrows, ect. The Indian feather gives you more options as a tattoo design then just a normal feather.

*Frank, always a pleasure. Yeah, they have some design similarities. I never thought about it like that.

*Bobbi, great to see you come by Bobbi. Thank you for the visit and your kind words. Thanks for everything.
