Thank you so much Jessica. I totally appreciate it. Boy its
too bad it was the only of its kind, it was so beautiful! I
looked up rare mutations and saw two birds, one was red and the
other was orange, but I forget what they called it. However
they were nothing close to this bird. If I find I will post
the link.
Again thanks for the info :)
