Same bird. Different video. Much more informative.
Thanks Nick

Good question Philip
In the original article, there is a video showing the bird manipulating the pebbles, with some difficulty. But the bird appears to be on a verandah railing which suggests it may
be domesticated and specially fed by keepers. I have saved the video but it is 24MB and so I can’t share it via the group. But I could send it personally or put it in the cloud (G-drive?).

Well that is a new type of story. On face value of the observations it appears that the conclusions are correct. I wonder why there is no mention of
how this bird feeds itself.

Most interesting tool invention. Worthy of Ikea.
