Hehe. It looks a bit like he's wearing glitter on his face.

He's lovely. It's great to see the process. I hope you can keep posting photos as he changes

I read yesterday that males which retain their breeding plumage during non-breeding season are older males, over about 4 years of age.

I've never seen this before.  Would love progress pics too, if you can get them.
