Maybe another junco?
I don’t think juncos have the straight edge on the one side like this feather, but for it to be a junco is the most likely identification.
I’d guess Mourning Dove feather. I see Mourning Dove feathers every day since they are at my feeders.
Also, it is illegal to have feathers so please return it outside.
