Slightly strange one - this feather turned up in my bag, and I don't know where it could have come from!
Places I have been in the time period during which it could have got into my bag include the Yorkshire coast (Filey and Flamborough), Manchester, Leeds, and a couple of moorland walks around Hebden Bridge and Ilkley. I feel like one of the moorland walks (near Ilkley) might have been the most likely occasion for it having got in there, in which case Red Grouse is an obvious possibility, but there's also always the possibility that it came out of the stuffing of some cushion or sofa or something, so it could also be a domestic duck/chicken/goose feather.
Any ideas?
