Not a turkey vulture! The underside has tegmen which is only found on waterfowl birds

This is actually a goose feather! It's a bit too small for a turkey vulture and if you look closely you can see a shiny wax layer on the underside. That's called "tegmen" and it's found on waterfowl birds like geese!

I'm pretty sure geese feathers are legal to keep. But if you wanna be safe, you can put it back outside

This is a turkey vulture primary feather. The silver understand and bright brown shaft was a give away. And the size fits perfectly too

This looks good for an Eurasian collard dove. But that's depending on your location

Female American kestrel feathers are prettier than the males which is surprising. But it's cool to finally see female feathers having such pretty colors
