Colorful Feather, a Thing of Beauty

I saw this pretty feather on the ground, but really don't know what bird it might have come from. Does anyone know?

Interesting thing about feathers; according to Wikipedia, "They are considered the most complex integumentary structures found in vertebrates." I agree, it's another of the complex wonders of nature.

Beautiful color. No idea what it's from, but I'll guess maybe a robins breast?

Hey Vern, my thought is the feather is from a Cedar waxwing.
