It IS a feather tree. Maybe those trees are made of birds?

Fruits are essentially plant eggs anyway.

Intended as eggs, it looks; it isn't a bug:
Code: [Select]
[USE_MATERIAL_TEMPLATE:EGG:EGG_YOLK_TEMPLATE]
  [STATE_COLOR:ALL:GREEN]
  [DISPLAY_COLOR:4:0:1]
  *** need to go w/ all egg mats when growths support it
  *** template currently implies animal kill

Yeah, the feather tree is a DF original construct. The leaves are feathers, the fruit are eggs, in addition to the wood being ridiculously light. It's the good biome tree, like how the glumprong is the evil biome tree and the highwood is he savage biome tree.

Only the feather tree has 'fruit' out of those three, so no evil or savage fruit, but the highwood has blue flowers in spring.

Considering that good biome grass is feathers and bubbles, it's not all that surprising that feather trees have eggs for fruit.

That actually makes a lot of sense. Thanks guys, it's great that Toady actually pays attention to detail.

Still, that's actually arguably creepier than some of the evil biome stuff.

Imagine being close to biting a feather tree egg when it cracks open and an acorn pops out, crying.

Evil biomes have plants with eyes that stare at you.
