Default Quiz - what are the wings on my dryfly

Thought I'd pose a little question for a change, I tied this up last night, its a bit of a pic n mix but just wonderded if anyone knows what the wings might be made of, there could be a free 'silver invicta mug' for whoever gives the first correct answer as I'm feeling generous this week and as an end of fly tying season present from me. Oh only one guess by the way so you better be sure what you suggest

Name the wing material on this fly?

Mug design that will be used will wrap right around the mug.

Woodcock? (nah, a bit too rich!); tawny owl? (road-kill, of course) or perhaps, kestrel? (see tawny owl).

Noone has guessed correctly yet I'm afraid
