Festive Coquette (male) - Festive Coquette boast elegant, green cheek tufts which are tipped with white. During courtship these tufts are flared outward and the male bows his head before the female, exposing a patch of pale blue bare skin on his crown.
Wishing everyone a happy St. Patrick's Day and a great week ahead!
