How would such a bird get here? I don't see any place where this bird is available for sale (unlike the many species common to the cage bird trade). It doesn't look like a species that you would expect to find in a cage, and their behavior is somewhat indicative of a bird that would be difficult to keep. Could this bird have been a stowaway on a ship from the Middle East? Is this another mysterious case like the Great Black Hawk?
