With the dark days of winter upon us, perhaps we’re feeling a bit blue at the moment?
Some of us may be seeing red due to changes and problems with the new look site.
Perhaps you’ve overindulged over the past few weeks, and you could be feeling anything from pale white through to decidedly green.!!
It’s always a big help when identifying birds if we can see them in their full colourful glory, but what if they looked totally different due to abnormal colouration?
I’ve changed the colours on the following mages (only very slightly though), so perhaps if you feel like it you could see if you’re able to identify the species, and if appropriate, gender of the colourful conundrums listed.
I put this together quite quickly so I don’t think this particular challenge should prove too much of a problem, but then again, I already know the answers.!!
Hint - Some of the tones may (or may not) be reversed; for example, dark tones show up light, and vice versa.
As always, it’s just for fun. Good luck. :-)

Thanks for taking the trouble to create this quiz, Paul, It was fun to have a go. It was quite challenging but I'm pleased I got a reasonable percentage right although by no means all.
Many thanks from me too Paul, it was goood of you to arrange such a challenging quiz and glad I got some of them right !
Thanks Paul, I'm not much good at it, but it's fun trying!

Wish my memory was that good PA ... wot did I do wrong?? Oh, maybe I googled or something?

I never mentioned any names. That sounds like a guilty conscience to me. :-)

All that stick you gave me three years must have caused lasting psychological damage so that I look guilty even when I'm not!! Rofl
