Special Feathers Found in Our Libraries

Feather bookmarks discovered.

A unique Silver Feather and two limited-edition Fuchsia Feathers have been found in our local libraries!

At Augusta Library, sisters Edie and Emily made exciting discoveries. Edie found the Silver Feather in a book she was eager to read by visiting author Kylie Howarth. This unique Silver Feather is one of just 20 hidden around the state. Meanwhile, Emily uncovered a limited-edition Fuchsia Feather. Another feather hunter, Oakley, found one at Margaret River Library.

In addition, Frankie, won a Feathered Friday prize for sharing a photo of her coloured-in feather on the Scribblers Festival Facebook page.

The Scribblers Golden Feather Hunt, which has engaged over 170 libraries statewide, invites young readers to explore local library collections. Thousands of feather-shaped bookmarks have been hidden in children’s and young adult books to promote a love for reading.

Participants can discover limited-edition fuchsia feathers, along with golden, silver, and colour-in white feathers, each offering a chance to win special prizes from the Scribblers Festival.

If you find a feather, please notify your librarian and follow the instructions on the back. For more details, visit scribblersfestival.com.au.
