This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I think you meant from a drone
Was it a feather from a green bird, or a green feather from a bird? Are there parakeets where you live?
Yeah, it does look like a budgie feather. If OP does not live where there are wild budgies, it could be one escaped, or the owner brought the feather outside on their clothing
The most likely explanation is that OP owns a green budgie and found one of their feathers.
That would mean the background is OP's ridiculously dirty carpet, and not reasonably littered asphalt, a notion which I do not want to entertain, therefore I will ignore this statement.
Or there's a lost budgie flying around the neighborhood. They do sometimes escape.
Hummingbird? They are often flourescent green like that, have seen several this year.
"Found"
Yes, on the ground in fact
I missed off the /s
so pretty
A surprising number of lost or found budgies are posted on my local Facebook lost pet group. Maybe it's from one of those.
