SF black-headeds.

definately blue heads

Look exactly like SF BH males to me.

I tend to agree with Tiaris,imo they are what we used to call smokeys which does look blueish. Craig

My BH PC SFYB have this blue tinge through the grey head, I think the birds in the video must just have more of the blue tinge. I think from reading who these belong to (Juan Farrat) that he has a strain that seems to produce more of this blue tinge in the grey and he has a breeding schedule to encourage this.

Craig,

you summed it up correctly....they look like a smokey which looks blueish....the blue head is more of a blue fushion rather than pure blue.

Extending the blue is a good look, and this guy is one of those few who seem to be having success.
