--0-249838321-1315137531=:74522 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Looking at my feeder this morning I noticed that one of the 4 birds was a full centimeter shorter than the other three. I first thought it was just hunched up but in the re-positioning when a fifth bird flew in it looked shorter in hover next to the others and still shorter than the others once resettled. The only other difference I could see was that the back of the neck had a higher percentage of white. Being so close to migration this size difference seemed strange for a species that probably varies in millimeters at full size.
