Birds of a feather leg tattoo

This particular tattoo image is a popular feather tattoo design, particularly for girls. This girl’s feather tattoo is inked on the outside of her right thigh, and features a large black feather, with about a dozen tiny black birds breaking off and flying away from the feather. The black feather tattoo could represent the saying “birds of a feather flock together,” which could be a symbol of a close relationship between two people, or of family. Feather tattoos come in a variety of designs, and can have any number of meanings, depending on the wearer. In some cases, feather tattoos are inspired by a person’s Native American heritage, in which case they may symbolize spirituality or the soul. For other people, birds of a feather tattoos represent feeling unburdened or “free as a bird.”
