Those are the complete set of tail feathers from a male Black Grouse, black cock(female--grey hen) and are very traditional with pipe band head wear in Scotland.

I just cannot get over how rude some of the people are that you chaps bump into. Whilst I think, it is fair game to discuss the finer points of kilt attire on a website such as this and on occasion we can even agree to differ, but to berate someone in public is increadably bad form and I have no idea how I would react in such circumstances.
