thank you ashley while i'm at it, i thought i'd show you this spotting: http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/245776017 My dad found it in the same pile of feathers as these 2. Are they the same bird different parts of the body? Or different species? Thanks...

You have a wing feather and a tail feather. Here's a link for the tail, and I provided the link for the wing in my suggestion. http://www.fws.gov/lab/featheratlas/feather.php?Bird=YSFL_tail_adult_ventral
