Has anyone seen this?  Turns out a Tropical Mockingbird made it to Gibraltor in 
February.

This is an excellent look at the frayed tip to the tail. The wingbars are
virtually nonexistent as well, suggesting some pretty severe wear. I am not
trying to rain on any parades, just to be realistic. Worn and frayed
plumage is suggestive of previous time spent in captivity.
