Thank you for your explaination.
So it's supposed that every male fork-tailed sunbird have this yellow feather underneath their green wing?
It can be answered ecologically, if not morphologically.
If a male does not have the yellow feather, how can it attracts female, mates and passes its gene to offspring?

I also had some sighting of this ritual dance in KFBG today. Very impressive.
