edited that section yet as I am plodding along a paragraph at a time) and has already spawned a whole series of "Bell didn't do it" articles mainly by the same editor who has admittedly read very little about Bell other than one polemic that was recently published about Elisha Gray. I am trying to give a balanced and referenced account of this inventor's life but bearing in mind, it is also the subject of continual vandalism attacks, so the work is getting extended to an overly long period. FWIW Red Sunset is one of my "buds."

556:? Someone removed your photo because of the skin colouration around the bird's eyes. As I understand it, parrots with patches of bare facial skin can flush it pink when excited or angry, as a display. Just thought that you should be aware of this. After all, you saw the bird at first hand and are probably best qualified to determine whether it was a hybrid or not... --

Yes, I think that it would be better to show a bird or birds including tail feathers. I have found a third picture that is probably better than both the cockatoo photographs. I have found a pair of
Senegal Parrots that was taken in Africa. The cockatoo was only a suggestion. I am sure that one of

Hi
Snowman, I've created a table of the relative performance and characteristics figures of the Macchi C.205V, N1, and N2 on my talk page (some of which don't match those in the specs section; note posted on discussion page) with the idea that it may be a neater way of displaying the information with

Perhaps it is due to sun tan of the bare skin. I am surprised how dark the skin is on
Senegal Parrots on the parrot main page. The bird I photographed was a free flying bird in a tree in the UK taken in the summer, so it might have had a sun tan. I speculate that it is due to the sun's rays, which

is fairly easy by shape of the individual wing-feathers, or, in specimens, skull ossification, but unfortunately neither are useful from the available photo. Yes, vitamin D is synthesized by exposure to the sun, but the colour issues in various birds are more likely explained by diet, stress and/or

The individual on the specific photo is, regardless of ocular-ring colour, suspicious due to the amount of green to the undertail coverts and the faint greenish spotting to the crown. However, both these features are commonly shown by pure sub-adults, meaning that, without knowing the age, it would

I chose the last imgae because it was the best image I could find of a wild parrot that looked good both reduced and close up - many images are one or the other but not both. While the fact that the tail is missing is unfortunate, I feel it was better than the one you replaced it with; lighting and

Just a minor addition to above. As now also noted in the article itself, the use of darkness of the ocular skin is entirely unreliable for determining purity. Wild individuals *always* have relatively dark grey skin (as indeed also can be seen on one of the few photos taken of this species in the

566:
HI KSB, the photo was taken on a warm summer day and the bird had been free flying. Could the skin have become flushed to help the bird cool? The removal of the photo with the comments make me question its breeding. I took several photos of it, but that was the best one.

can easily be tested by keeping birds in different sun light conditions. They need to get some vitamin D from sunlight, I expect. My photo is on the commons, with a note that it might be a hybrid. So is it a hybirid? Can my photo go back on the wiki parrot page now?

a lot of photos would be suitable. The Polish wiki has a collection of bird drawings in the taxobox. I like the
Senegal Parrot photograph, but there are probably photoes with grater clarity about somewhere. Anyone can change the taxobox photo.
