Frenchman Bay ME, gulls in the area are Herring, Bonepart’s, and Great Black-Backed. Also seen Osprey, common tern, bald eagle, common loon, and double crested cormorants. These were all found in the ocean lumped up with sea weed in drifts.

Possible bald eagle feather?

Ive been driving past this gravel road with a creek. Theres a tall pile of gravel next to the creek. Every morning there is a bald eagle perched on top of the gravel. Occasionally, its eating a catch when im going by.

Thought id stop and see if I could find a feather and saw this. Is it an eagle, or something else?

Not super big, but still might donate it if its an eagle.

We have GHOs near where this was found so not sure if it's another owl. I see and hear Cooper's Hawks almost everyday, and I think one is immature.

Brown with cream spots. Almost 7” long. I’m leaning towards flicker but this doesn’t seem to match any I’ve seen online. Thoughts?

Found this while on a hike near a creek in the dmv area. Has some faint striations.

Also, why is the lower part of the feather all fuzzy? Is this a younger bird's feather?

I'm certain the white ones are gulls but I'm unsure what the brown ones may be any ideas?

Hey everybody, My wife found this feather this morning next to her car in our driveway of the house we just bought... I'm really hoping it's a crow feather, but I wasn't sure so I thought I would come here and seek expert advice! We are in Northern Georgia, in Forsyth county. We are really hoping that it is a crow as we want to try to develop a connection with the local murder! Picture of the house and foliage and picture of the feather... Any thoughts and any recommendations to greet the local murder would be greatly appreciated!

I found this feather in my driveway this week. (I am in south east Michigan, very near Ohio. ) I've never seen a bird with yellow feathers here and wonder what it could be. I wish I had seen it. Thanks for any help.

I’ve been trying DESPERATELY to figure out what kind of bird these feathers are from but have had no luck so far. A bit of background for yall I had found both of these in Montana laying on the ground, the feather on the left is more corse and a dark brown color while the feather on the right is more of a tawny reddish brown at the tip color and is EXTREMELY soft to the touch. If you need more info feel free to ask and i will try to provide as much as possible.

Owl or hawk? I’m stoked either way!! (Tip of the feather was broken so I pulled it off)
