"Dude" Looks Like a Lady

[Blooie]

I can't tell for sure from the video but I do know cuteness overload when I see it! This is definitely that!

I captured Dude on trail cam when we were trying to figure out who was laying the first eggs. Dude never sat in the nesting boxes, by the way--just came in for food and left. Sometimes he checked out the boxes, but never sat in them.

Hmmmm, having trouble getting it on YouTube and Vimeo. Here's a screen shot.

Here are some fresh photos. Tell me what you see, because sexing by saddle feathers is still beyond me.

Huh--photos didn't upload from phone. Trying again...

Notice that Dude is "on the fence" in the last photo. Pun totally unintended by Dude, I'm sure!
