So Nubes flights are changing colour.
It's really noticeable now. I came back here to look and you can see one flight feather in the pics from February where the colour had changed. Now there are more...

Sorry the pic is dark, the sun was coming in from the other side. This has happened slowly over the winter while he was over 2 years old.
I'll try get a better pic later.

Side by side,

No, and he never will. His mate is his sister. They bonded right out of the nest so I let them stay together.

I should get some more pics for this thread. After my nephews have been and gone, I´ll take the time to update. It is very difficult to photograph Nube, the camera just never focuses on him.
