According to docents, this is the only mated and breeding pair of black oystercatchers in captivity in the entire world. They produce an average of three offspring a year (and have for many years) which are sent to other facilities.
@GiratinaIsGod Probably because Black Oystercatchers aren't in very high demand, they're aggressive birds, especially if breeding. Most places only keep one to keep aggression minimal.
