Need feather help

I'm itching to get into the feather inlay art, however being in south Texas there are no good sources without having to pay an arm and leg for the feathers. Coupla a weeks ago there was a post about a lady supplier who had selections of feathers at a reasonable prices. Now, I can't find the scrap of paper that I wrote her email address or phone on. Someone told me when you start to get old, memory is the second thing to go and I can't remember what the first one is.
Thanks,
Gerald McCasland

Check the VFS @#$%& now and then. A company called Thompson Atlantic Hackle (Nova Scotia, Canada) has Jungle Cock nails in the fly tying section periodically. Great feathers, packaged very neatly, at an affordable cost. I'll post the URL in a minute, along with the other address (lady in Oregon) that you are seeking.

This lady is very nice and a friend of rod builder Bob Meiser. Inquire as to specific feathers that you want. She has a variety of exotic feathers available.

I revceived some samples from Kate a couple weeks back and she really has some interesting stuff. Expect to see here as a sponsor here in due course.
