I think normal greens get a blueish tinge to the tail and top of the head around the ring. Jibby has a blueish tinge to the 2 longest tail feathers and top of head. In some light his tail looks more turquoise. But hes normal green. He only got this in the last 2 years and hes 7 years old in September.

Normal Greens have their center tail feathers colored Blue and the Bluish sheen all over the body, as mentioned by Lauren on the nape, as well as the rump and wing area are but natural but varies from bird to bird.

Bunches of blue sheen here too! The longest tail feathers are entirely blue. I dont know what it is about the greens... I just love them!

Even over the voilets and all of the exotic mutations. :shock:

They are all beautiful! But to me, they are suppose to be green lol. Imma silly girl!

He looks like my normal green too.Some of the colours can be confusing sometimes eg my new girl is a pastel blue but she is green to look at.
Here is a pic of my norm green with my cinnamon.
