    For several years a friend has seen occasionally an escaped White-Cheeked Turaco which has survived several quite hard winters in the UK, and often visits bird tables. Has anyone else ever seen either this individual or others living wild, either in the UK or elsewhere? Are there any feral populations to be seen in other parts of the world?
