I'm a big fan of a pearly invicta, but not tried a mirage one.

Nice wing on that too. I've been experimenting with different winging techniques for the ever tricky hen pheasant centre tail - like the ones shown on the FDG website. How do you do yours?

Cheers , the wing is paired slips from left and right primary feathers from hen pheasant wing . Then just pinch and looped .
