This is a non-releasable captive bird with a heartbreaking story: wildlife
biologists had been observing the nest where he hatched, and as they watched he
made his first flight - and crashed into the biologists' car, permanently
injuring his right wing. This bird is now 9 years old.
R8/DMR, 280 APO
