Hmmm, i'm not sure if the last one is opaline... it's hard to tell.

i see blue in the wings is all... any better pics?

I'll get another clearer, better picture tomorrow.

The V shape between the shoulders is what makes the bird opaline with the reverse pattern on the head not the blue running through the wings (some opaline have that some don't). From a front shot it doesn't look opaline.

 

Are those all your birds?

11 looks opaline to me- yf2 opaline spangle

I reckon 10 is greywing spangle as the markings look really light to me

 

But you have picked them well. Nice birds too.

Yes, they are all of my birds and yes number 10 does look like a greywing spangle. I looked at number 11 today and she does look opaline...pictures coming soon! :sad:

They are all so beautiful, I wasn't sure if you had more too. I look forward to seeing the new picture :sad:

hey I remember that little one!!

Hi there just like to say that your number one bird the opaline green has a perfect v of body colour between the wings a very hard trait to keep in the opaline variety as they revert back to normal and carry the black feather markings between the wings . Although a long way off from a show bird it is nice to be reminded of how beautiful the real opaline variety is (complete body colour with just the black in the wings), its a pity that the opaline breeders let this trait slip away , They are a beautiful bird.

Thankyou .

A nice gathering of birds.

Thank you lonebudgie. :glare:

hey I remember that little one!!

Yeh, I bought her off Kaz...she's a beautiful bird, one of my favourites. I called her Blossom... I think it suits her

nice birds

Here are a few more pictures of Blossom (No. 11)
