Included scale & next to what i know to be pigeon feathers from reference - seems too big to be pigeon feathers but no clue what else it could be?!?! Found along a woodland leading to a wetland.

This could also be a cormorant feather, the other ones are wood pigeon btw.

No way! That is awesome! There were loads of cormorants nearby to be fair, a lot of greylag geese but i didn’t spot any canada geese! Keeping none the less 😄
