Pretty chuffed....sent heap of pics to Don Crawford...this is his reply...
Hi David!
After getting some time to study the photos more closely the baby feather on the uncoloured is an olive shade, then I noticed the strong green coming through and they are far better coloured than my young birds. So I think you have something that is worth working with as it is obvious that
The S/F colour has to be somewhere between Normal colour and Olive so it is called Dark-Green – that is why double dark green produces olive!!
As I said that is the best black headed normal I have seen if you have more quality like that could you let me know
Cheers Don.
