Hey there,
This Past December I got a whiteface cockatiel. Back then it had a grey face, and barring on its tail feathers (everything indicating female). Over the last three months the face has gradually turned white, and it whistles and sings like crazy. Even picked up "pretty bird" quickly. All which make me think it may have been misidentified. However, it still has the barring on the tail feathers. I'm very confused. Is it some sort of split? The picture attached is of the same bird, three months ago and today. I'm not sure of the age, but I believe it's under a year. I've named him/her Bandit (it has a mask).
