Hi Amy,
First thing, it would be best to change your user name as this is a public forum and using your email can lead to unwanted spam :(
Can you give a few more details of where the feather was found - the mottling make me think of certain types but environment will rule some out - i.e. if it was an inner city garden I would not think of looking at curlew - but if it was out on the moors or rocky shoreline then it's a possibility
If you have lots of free time this is the site many use to help

Thank you got the advice regarding the username which I’ve now changed.
It was found at a national trust, an area with lots of gardens/large trees and also had a river nearby - hope that helps
