Default Bronze Mallard sub?

If my memory serves me right, bronze mallard are certain feathers, and not
necessarily bronze in color. I believe that they are the feathers that are
in the arm pit of the duck. They are the transitional feather from breast
to wing. They look a lot like breast feathers but they are much longer and
a bit stronger. Because of this additonal strength, they are often used for
wings on flies
