Blue-capped Cordon bleu Juv 2 months old

Post by a_gouldian » Sat Mar 25, 2017 8:14 pm

Here is a pic of one of our Blue-capped Cordon Bleu juvs from our first clutch. Almost two months old. They are very hard to take pics of because they don't stay still very long while I am trying to take a pic! This clutch of three is doing very well. They are very lively and love to sing.

What a handsome little youngster.
I really love the Blue Caps, but we very rarely see them over here. Usually only the Red cheek CB's.

Beautiful pictures :D

It looks like we are going to have an excess of Blue-caps this year. 3 juvs, 5 nestlings that are 13 days old, 5 other eggs that should hatch later this week, and possibly another 5 more eggs just starting to be incubated.

a_gouldian - You are so lucky! They sure are coming along nicely. Here in southern California we have the same problem as Elana in Calgary: lots of red cheeks but no blue caps anywhere around. I've been looking for a female for my lonely guy since last October. Wish you didn't live so far away!
