Is this a Jenday?

I bought Paco as a 3 year old Jenday. I think he might be a Sunday. What do you think?

Looks like a Jenday to me, but I will let others weigh in on the subject! He's gorgeous by the way.

i think he's a Sunday. the yellow on the wings, the huge amount of red around the eyes, the yellow chest, the yellow near the feet/on his legs: all uncharacteristic of Jendays. but, Xafsmom did say in one of her posts that some wild-caught pure Jendays had some yellowing of the wings. but, in this case, i think it's more likely that Paco's a hybrid. and, a cute one at that :D!

My Jenday does not have the speckling of yellow on the wings. He also has no yellow on his chest. Here's a pic. You have a beautiful bird! :)
