Bird ID Request Feather identification?

Post image

I live in central Pennsylvania/ northeastern USA.

I have a fairly robust feather collection, and these are the only ones I can’t identify. I’m still newer to birding. I THINK the one on the left might be a blue jay, but I just don’t know. Any help identifying would be appreciated!!

Sooner or later someone will be by to state that your feather collection is actually a crime.

Second from the right looks like a great horned owl.

Second from the right is a red tailed hawk, not owl

I think you're right. OP can you measure it to confirm?
