Jerry Friedman Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Also the outer tail feathers are shorter than the inner ones (clearest in the second picture). It's doing that funny spread of the undertail coverts. Do they mostly do that in spring? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
