This is quite amazing.

Until recently I never fully understood how to tell the difference between Male and Female birds, I always thought that it had to be determined surgically unless one actually saw an egg being laid.

Until now.

Have a close look at the picture below and study the two birds closely. See if you can spot which of them is the female.

Believe it or not, this can be done even by someone with limited ornithological skills.

I thought about saying nothing to disprove your point but I couldn't quite manage it! :D

Tempted to send that to my Mum (we have a parrot that we don't know if a boy or girl). Except there should be a roast tomorrow (parrot?), so I'll have to wait until after ;D

I wonder where the phrase 'henpecked' came from? ;D

Always thought most birds were female anyway ;)
