Is there some context for this?

Thank You for your answer. I'm afraid the context doesn't help at all. The word is here:

He donned the round blue hat with a gay pheasant feather and swirled around his shoulders a blue cloak edged with ermine

It's not a "gay pheasant" it's a "gay pheasant feather" here "gay" means bright and decorative.

Well, I never think about this problem on animal. more familar with gay. lesbain and bisexual people as just envolved in dating with a lovely girl at BiMingle ..ccoom. Maybe we can consider to have an lesbian animal. Interesting.
