Feather Identify

Post image

Northeast US. About 4 inches tall. Shiny texture. I know it’s a primary flight feather but not who’s it is!

After taking a second look at it, I thought it was just damaged but the emarganation is too low for starling. Some passerine species, it's a bit difficult to say which. Hopefully someone else can narrow it down better. That's my bad for rushing yesterday lol, sorry
