      Lovely shot of the species that was one of my main reasons for going to Jersey in 2005.

      One of the others was Lesser Antillean Iguana, and no sooner had I made then effort than they turned up at Chester! (and which I've been lucky enough to see in the wild since as well)

      But still my only Echo Parakeets (and my photos aren't a patch on this!).

      Thanks guys! :D

      I think that Jersey only have just the one male now, and are also the only collection in the world (according to Isis) to hold them. So unfortunately they are just generally rare in captivity I guess :(
