It was taken on the beach at Sentosa island in Singapore, the owner had it out and would let you feed it, that beak would put a lot of people off but it was really gentle at taking food off you, a lot safer feeding that than the african grey i have. It would take peices of food smaller than a pea out of your hand or you could throw it towards the bird and it would catch it  |
