got into a fight with the male of a wild pair nesting in the grounds and ended up inside the tiger enclosure, and to his keeper's horror; subsequently inside the jaws of one one of our tigers. Amazingly the tiger didn't bite, and Solo got out and fought off both curious tigers with it's beak before the keepers had managed to get the cats inside their den, half expecting to find a mortally wounded dying kestrel once they got in there
But no, at the vets hospital it was discovered he had a few ruffled feathers on account of crashing through the tiger cage's roof; one hell of a plucky little feathery geezer :)

The 'term' is about the most irritating thing about this place.
