UK feather id help, please! (North Wales) (1 Viewer)

Hi, please can anyone help with identifying this feather? Found in North Wales, under a Scots pine. Just can't find any pictures of any feathers of a similar reddy brown with the dark speckles! Thanks so much.

Ooh, do you think? I hadn't come across any likely pictures, but peacock feather images are obviously dominated by the other coloured ones - I'll look some more! Thank you

Seems a pretty good match for the adult female feathers, feather base is a pretty good site for feather comparisons.

It IS peacock! Bangor services, N Wales (visiting father in Ysbyty Gwynedd) - just been back past and clocked male and female hanging out at the petrol station!? Magic, thanks ever so much all x
