These birds are fully wild. They were never caged and were born free. During the last 25 years they must have experienced nights of up to 24 degrees of frost (-24C). When we discovered the birds in March 2005 it was freezing and snow covered the land. I did not bring my camera then but I can assure you that it was a strange sight.
