r/FeatherIdentification

I was walking around today after it rained and saw this feather! (I left it where I found it, birds ARE protected, especially raptors.)

I thought they were steller's jay, but the white tips don't match (the flight feathers from the same bird also have blue bars on at least one side & white tips). These tail feathers are 5½ inches long

Found in a flood plain. My first guess was Osprey but it’s much too small, barred owl maybe? Fish and Wildlife Feather Finder wasn’t super helpful.

I found these 2 feathers up north and my FIL thinks the one on the left is some type of owl feather and the other is some water fowl. Can you guys narrow it down for me?

Tried looking up birds that live in my area in featherbase and found nothing. These were found near a hedge with trees and a creek behind it, in the same general area but at different times. First one is 8,5cm, second one 9cm and last 4cm. Not sure if these are from the same bird at all

found on the coast in Texas

Owl?

Do I have to get rid of this? What species is it from? (Hand for scale)

I found this on the ground at a cemetery in New Mexico (did not keep) we have a pair of great horned owls here is it a great horned owl feather?

Found this feather in my yard. Is it from a bald eagle? If it is, do I have to turn it in or discard it? (Hand for scale)

Grey with like light black shading kinda on the one side? Photo isnt very good <sorry>!!!<

Any ideas who dropped this? Loki thought they smelled very strange.

There is also a tree over the driveway with a magpie nest, does this belong to a magpie?

Help with ID please. Exact location was a forest (Loenense Bos).
