I'd love to see this species in my local L.A. Zoo again.

Edinburgh's birds are Andean, Rupicola peruvianus peruvianus, rather than Guianan, R. rupicola.

Beautiful birds either way, though!

Edinburgh announced they had received a pair, what has happened to the other one?

(or perhaps you are in pedant mode, and regard the other individual as a hen-of-the-rock!)
