Nice I like those. I keep all the down feathers in a container until spring and then shove them into garden bird feeder cages (the fat ball type) for the birds to use in their nests. The birds go crazy for them.
Thanks
Interesting idea
I shall talk to the lady that did them - my wife!
It's basically hot melt glue the feathers on starting at the bottom and working your way up going round
She bought some polystyrene balls to use as a base but have also glued onto normal Christmas shiny ones, which is a good use of ones that may be old and battered.
the ones in the picture are using the 'clean' ends of the feathers but it's possible to make a fluffy/ scruffy version using the entire feather in exactly the same way...

An unexpected bonus of deep snow. It's buried my xmas lights and created an amazing glowing wall effect. I can set it to strobe and it looks like a spaceship has landed

Grass and ice
ha ha, we had some great weather for pics. I was driving up and down the country and saw some amazing, beautiful scenes, just awkward to take a pic from the moving car 
Thanks for these though and I hope that we have many more before winter's over
