I was just going to tell her that. They actually raise that red bar to show off!

![]() It is not a great shot, but I finally got a photo of them showing off their colors. ![]() ![]() While looking for it...I cropped this one as well--too bad I have yet to get a good clear photo of birds in flight with a good composition as well...maybe some day. ![]() ![]()

![]() I love their gurgling call and trilling, too. It is one of the few (only?) bird calls I feel I recognize without seeing the actual bird to verify what I'm hearing. Yesterday, I went out and they were all calling to each other from high in the trees--love it!

That's more like what I've seen, a yellow bar instead of red.

I just assumed that they were a year old and would gain their adult plumage this year...now, I've learned it takes longer. Based on the two I saw, I wonder if they were one year old...and those you posted may be two-year olds--just a guess on my part--yours look like they have more color than those I saw.
