Fascinating sighting and discussion! Good points, Phil.....one proviso is that choughs often hang around in tall weeds and grass, which combined with the black feathering at the top of their legs, can occasionally make the legs impossible to see. I have noticed that on choughs in France and Italy.
They are, I believe, housed in at least a few aviaries in the UK so I imagine there may be some in zoos here in the US. Finally, the Canary Islands are pretty far away...on the other hand, there have been several hurricane-strength systems blowing across the Atlantic from Africa recently.......nothing is impossible!
Cool stuff!
