No descriptions in IORA 1. The original rare bird report is available (see links). Treated as an escapee in IORA 1 and in Wang & Hails (2007), as a possible escapee in Lim (2009). Repeated sightings of this species after 2014 has led to increased knowledge that this species is a rare visitor and we accept this as a wild bird. |
