Always be still for ages until all the feathers are in a nice pile then fly around scattering them all again :x :x :x

I have couple corners where they gather naturally so I leave these until last, as soon as I pull them out into open the buggers start flapping and off they go up in the air floating all about then

Mine started early so that's why mine bit further I think, have had latebreds moulting fully which never had before and most unusual I think
