      I agree that they are beautiful, provided you can get close enough. They are also remarkably fast in flight in this large aviary.

      I was going to say you're lucky to get one sitting still but from your statement above I now know that you understand this! ;) You are right, they can't half shift!

      Is the tinamou still in the desert house as well?

      Yes, they make a very nice addition to the Desert House and I think they have had a good breeding season. I posted a shot of a well-grown chick at the same time as this image.
