Found by a colleague during a FOG weeding work party. Assume it is from a Nankeen (Australian) Kestrel we regularly see here?

Doesn’t look like a Kestrel feather

Mmmm! Thanks Liam, wasn't expecting that at this location. Although I must admit it did remind me of the conclusion you and Matt came to re my sighting at Sutton in Jan 2022, https://canberra.naturemapr.org/sightings/4449673, located on a large rural bush block. Look forward to any further thoughts on what you (plural) come up with.

From memory @MatthewFrawley knows someone from COG who’s good with feather ID, an I’d prefer to wait for their opinion before confirming any ID

Have sought their advice on this feather, will let you know what they say.
