tertiaries
Body-adjacent flight feathers
Tertiaries are things ranked third in a sequence or hierarchy.
In ornithology, tertiaries are the innermost flight feathers on a bird's wing, positioned after the primaries and secondaries.
In other contexts, tertiaries may refer to third-level categories, colors mixed from secondaries, or members of Catholic third orders—lay people affiliated with religious communities like Franciscans.
