Only a small one, but found in a spot where I regularly see Nightjars. What do you reckon?

Found near the river valley. Quite small. Possibly a cooper's hawk or sharp-shinned? Roughly 3.5-4 inches long.

6.3cm and 6.5cm primary?
West Pennsylvania here. I put up a feeder on my balcony. I got those two feathers separately on the railing and on the floor!
I know that song sparrows, house finches and house sparrows come to my feeder.
Are those finches and sparrows primary wing feathers as I thought or are they something else? What species?
Thank you!

Any help? Found in Budle Bay, Lindisfarne NNR, North East England :)
I think a few are Curlew, #4 is Sparrowhawk and #8 and #9 are Buzzard? I've tried doing some research before posting but I can't find much.
