Where can you find feathers in Sons of the Forest?
Getting feathers in Sons of the Forest just requires you to kill birds from around the island and loot their corpses. They’re simple enough to kill with a couple of hits from your axe and can be found in abundance around the island.
If you’re looking to bag a pocket full of feathers early on, stick with the beach areas. There are plenty of seagulls loitering about, just waiting to be plucked (or in this case killed) for their feathers.
If you’re not near the beach, there are still plenty of other birds inland. But the beaches are a guaranteed place to find a flock.
How to use feathers in Sons of the Forest
Feathers can be used to craft arrows in Sons of the Forest; the more feathers you have, the more arrows you can craft (along with a few sticks and stones as well).
