    after looking at the first one i tied,

    to me it looked like something was missing.

    so i tied another one and here it is,

    i used a longer hook on this one,

    but had no more of the darker mallard.

    if any one knows of any nice bronze mallard

    available please let me know.

    thanks

    have a good day

    the blue and yellow birds are indian ringneck parrots

    of which i also have albinos these colors are color mutations

    the normal color of these birds is green.

    the orange ,yellow and green bird is a sun conure and that is the normal color for that bird

    we have a couple of pairs of each of these birds.

    and each spring hand feed babies from each pair.
