Ahh, just looked it up, rare to be a UK breeder, that's a shame. I think it was Slimbridge had one in full plumage a few years back when we were there visiting, in the walkthrough aviary
I have not seen one in full breeding plumage. One of those birds that never comes quite close enough...Thanks PB
