s folder ever since. The thought itself, on how and why the plumages of birds get their colours from, came about from a question asked by one of my friends after a good session of photography sometime mid-2014. That discussion triggered my inquisitiveness and I started reading up about schemochromes (or structural colours). Don’t recollect why I didn’t complete this blog at that time, I must have just been lazy I guess. But, better late than never.
