Is PSQR make sense here?

R will definitely come in last because it is about the colour of the bird and S6 is an explanation of the types of colour the bird can have. So they are a complimentary pair.

RP is the complementary pair so option B is correct.

Option B appears more appropriate. Since S1 starts with "sun birds" there is no need to use "sun birds" again in the next sentence. It seems odd to again write "sun birds" as will be the case according to the given answer.
