Excellent photo. A wonderful species, which I have convinced myself that I glimpsed in the wild.

Thank you. The Zlin zoo has a big group of this species - probably biggest in Europe.
 
To my knowlege, the only 4 pairs in Europe, if there aren't any at Weltvogelpark Walsrode. Great to see a successful breeding of the species. The only former breeding of a young at Walsrode 2003, died within a year.

In Weltvogelpark Walsrode, in june of this year, I could see only one bird. During the stay in Czechs I could see 1 specimen in the Prague Zoo and 6 adults and 2 youngs in the Zlin Zoo!!!
