I couldn't remember if the male or female has the extra yellow, but I don't think he'll mind that I called him sweetheart all day. I don't know quite what's wrong with him but he won't fly off.

I tried releasing him several times and he just sat or fell over. He just falls over and seems to drag his body when he's walking. He doesn't flap his wings but they can open and close. I think he's become our pet for a few days or however long he lives. I'm hoping that maybe he'll become stronger overnight and we can try again.
