Mama Is Just Chillin

While papa was scanning the sky for insects, mama was just relaxing at the end of the railing. She is larger than papa and her head is rounder. She also has less black under her chin than him. I do have to admit that I can only tell them apart when they are both there together. I still can't get over how their belly colors matches the railing perfectly.
