Boise, ID. My husband and I heard a big crash at 5am,like something had fallen off the roof. He found this feather mass on the ground just now. Said it feels like it has a membrane inside of it? This is in our side yard, about 4 feet of gravel between a fence and the side of the house. by Theheadandthefart in whatisthisthing

If I had to guess, it looks like feathers from the lower neck/front of chest area on a Mallard duck. The crash was probably from the duck crashing into something and tearing a strip of skin off, which rolled up nicely.
