May be a bug, but seems to be rewarding 2000 reputation per turn-in after the Shattering patch
I can confirm the feathers are still dropping in Cataclysm, at least at Felpaw Village.

Description
While you have proven yourself to me, you may need to continue to work toward proving yourself to the suspicious brethren of my tribe. To that end, I may be able to continue assisting you. Some of the Deadwood furbolgs wear a distinctive headdress that may be used as a means of proof in thinning their numbers. Bring me a feather from any headdresses you acquire; for every set of five you bring me, you will earn recognition amongst the Timbermaw.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the quest's prerequisites.
- Deadwood of the North
There is a camp of Deadwood furbolgs directly to our southwest. Corruption permeates the camp, and I wish to put an end to it before they become a problem. The Deadwood tribe is evil, but it is the effects of the fel that pollutes their minds.
- Disarming Bears
I would prefer to do as much as we can to protect my people from the Deadwood tribe without slaughtering every last one of them. We've taken steps towards this before, and if you wish to prove yourself to the Timbermaw tribe, I would ask you do this as well.
