Subject: [Tweeters] found feather - wondering what bird it's from

I was walking on Upper Queen Anne this morning and found on the sidewalk a
feather and can't figure out the bird it's from.

It's not quite 6" long. I think it may be a flight feather. The shorter
vane is dark gray and the longer side of the vane is dark gray and then
about 1/3 from top in a diagonal line done the turns transparent with
pinkish tinge and the last 1/8 on that side is totally the pinkish
transparent. The central shaft is very bright pink with a hint of orange to
it.

I'd appreciate any ideas on what bird it may be from.

Thank you.
