People might remember the blue Australian White Ibis seen last year,
very 
similar to the blue colour of the sparrow. A couple of months ago the
blue 
Ibis was at Freshwater Creek Wetlands at Chullora and it was in moult
with 
the blue feathers being replaced by white feathers. I would suggest that

there is a connection here with the blue sparrow.
