Recent studies on bird flight propose that hotter wing surfaces reduce skin friction drag, thereby improving flight efficiency (lift-to-drag ratio). Darker wings may in turn heat faster under solar radiation than lighter wings. We used three methods to test the impact of colour on wing surface tempe...
