Field Notes

Description:

Although these do live in the wild - there is a small population where I lived in Norfolk many years ago - they are most often seen in captivity as they are a popular large cage bird. This one lives in an aviary but appears to be on its own and prefers to stay out of sight.

Habitat:

Animal farm
