Today marks 55 years since Eswatini adopted its current flag on 5 October 1968. Based on official flags, it seems like a bright blue is standard, despite depictions often featuring dark blue.

There does not seem to be an officially defined shade of blue, but a bright blue is seen in for example these pictures of prime ministers:

Many do believe that it should be dark blue though, as shown by a quick ducking. On Wikipedia, there seems to be https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=File:Flag_of_Eswatini.svg&offset=&limit=50.

Then there is the color of the feathers, that allegedly where changed from blue to grey in 2011, but sources are not 100% reliable.
