RobinHood Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 Southern Ontario yesterday. Just wondering if this is a female starting the change to male plumage. The bill is still bi-coloured but looking more yellow than normal (and slightly deformed), some green on the head appearing and the body plumage looking more male. I think it is too late for an immature male to be moulting into adult plumage. Thanks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bird Nuts Posted November 5, 2022 Share Posted November 5, 2022 I'd call it an immature male based on the yellow bill. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
