Hey Birdrain, I actually see what you meant...The other photos of Thor are not the right angle, but everyone if you look at Thor on the right, you do see male looking neck feathers which really do stand out against the green peahen looking feathers. This is really weird!! I hope I am not the only one that noticed that. I am still not going to say Thor is a male because the other feathers are correct and Thor is not the right size, but still it is very interesting...If anyone needs me to circle where the blue feathers are I will and I also want to ask if any of you see this kind of neck color difference in peahens because that is just literally a patch of blue feathers! So weird....

It's true. I can clearly see the blue feathers on the back of Thor's neck. The first pic shows it the best.

You have been brain washed

Perhaps a few random blue-ish feathers (don't forget how differently color can appear depending upon the light!), but:
● white breast
● white-edged feathers on her chest
● no color on her face
● no barring on her wings
● in fact, no defining male characteristics whatsoever

MinxFox, you are encouraging the madness!

Brainwashed??? Or, perhaps...
Zombies????

I wasn't saying I think Thor is a male, I still think it is a Thora, but I was just saying that a few of the neck feathers do look different, and it doesn't look like it is the lighting making the feathers look that way. I just wanted to say that at least Birdrain was right that a few neck feathers are blue, but I know that doesn't make it a male.

I just thought it was interesting...

And I was agreeing with MinxFox so she knows she wasn't the only one who saw the blue.

OK MinxFox, you're officially not a zombie.

Then may I be an elf from Lord of the Rings?

Perhaps you could provide a picture of this "elf" before you get approval from the Supreme Pea Council?

The lighting didn't make them blue just sayen
