Default I'd like your opinion on what color for a bird applique

Hi. This is the last thing I have to do to have my LBB flimsy done. I decided I wanted this bird in the corner to be a bluebird. There's a couple more birds like this on the quilt and the blues were so much alike that the wings didn't stand out very much. So, I was thinking of making the body of the bird a medium grey. Would that look awful?

Or, should I stay with the blue for the body in a lighter or darker shade? I have the larger wing cut out, the belly and the smaller wing sewn on already and I'm really ready to get it done. Of course, there's embellishing to do but hoping to finish it this weekend so I'll be ready for the quilting.

I'd really like your opinion about how to finish this bird. Thanks.
