Hello all,

I'm risking sounding a bit dense here but why isn't it a Coxen's Fig Parrot? Not that that wouldn't be a wonderful find in itself.

Cheers

Presumably this bird is sympatric with the historical range of Coxen's Fig 
Parrot, which suggests it's a good biological species (though who knows how 
many records of Coxen's may have been of this bird).
