sketches of one of the local king parrots. they have a very high chroma & light value red colour in real life, which is tricky to handle in watercolour!

@todaysbird I need some help identifying something and I was wondering if you knew something about it;
We’ve got a whole bunch of king parrots that live around the house, and I’ve noticed that some of the adult females have peach-coloured spots on the end of each tail feather while some don’t (none of the males have these spots). I couldn’t really find any sources on it so I was wondering if you knew anything about whether it’s a colour mutation of some kind.

(They’re not the exact same feather because I only collect feathers from the ground, but the one on the left has the peach spot and the one on the right does not. Both are from separate adult females)
Technically two feathers is not a full bird so here ya go

Recently, this cheeky Australian king parrot has come to steal in my vegetable garden regularly, sometimes with his family/friends.

is it possible that some of your females got sick or injured? sometimes things like that cause color change in animals
That’s true- there’s plenty of health issues for birds, so some of them will have chipped nails and all that, but the family line with peach spotted tails are more likely to have broken or chipped beaks if that’s something (not akd tho) but other than that they both seem very content.
