User's notes

I believe this is a pair I've seen over the years - 'No Colour'. I thought they were both males, until I saw one yellow feather under the chin of one of the pair, after hearing a female begging call. However, the tail colour on both would indicate male, yet four years ago I photographed them allofeeding . . . I'm confused . . . These pair are two of twelve individuals I saw throughout the day
