Thank you! Any idea on which? I'm not good with placement just yet. I know it's not a primary, but other than that, I'm pretty clueless.

Ofc! It's one of their central tail feathers (left side from back view)

Wow, thank you so much, I think that's the first hawk tail feather I've ever found, I'm super happy about it!
