July 7, 2003 -- Six Weeks Old

Two Rows of Stars
Shadow's molt is progressing nicely. Tonight he has two rows of stars, one down each flank. Another starry feather has appeared centered on his upper breast, and he is growing new wing coverts and new feathers on his shoulders.


I only stand like this when I'm playing. This silly, fluffed up pose shows my brand new stars.

Look at the covert feathers on my upper right wing. They are black, iridescent, and rimmed in tan. Soon my primary and secondary wing feathers will be replaced with feathers like these.
