Greg,
I think I had a bad source on the first nature that confused me (ie. consort is Nut).

I can't seem to be able to locate this bad source on that one at the moment, although Cladking seemed to mention something similar. Perhaps a mis-translation or something:
"His plumes rise high in the air and in one text Nut is impregnated with fury." -- CladKing

On the second nature...

[nefertiti.iwebland.com]
"In a hymn Min and Horus appear equated
I worship Min, I extol arm-raising Horus:
Hail to you, Min in his procession!
Tall-plumed, son of Osiris,
Born of divine Isis.
Great in Senut, mighty in Ipu (i.e. Panoplis=Akhmim),
You of Coptus, Horus strong-armed,
Lord of awe who silences pride,
Sovereign of all the gods!
Fragrance laden when he comes from Medja-land,
Awe inspiring in Nubia,
You of Utent, hail and praise!"
-- Hymn to Min of the Deputy-treasurer Sobk-iry, Middle Kingdom
M. Lichtheim, Ancient Egyptian Literature, Vol.1, p.204
(Rock Stela of Mentuhotep IV)

[en.wikipedia.org])
"Min was identified with Horus"
...
"as an erect phallus"
...
"white bull"
