Native caledonian, wild in origin but increasingly seen in urban and suburban settings.
Best seen: weekdays in city centres, weekends in hotel lobbies and banqueting suites. Thrives in tourist honeypots, laybyes, car parks, border posts, wedding receptions and corporate bashes.
Mates twice a season each January; 1st (Hogmanay) and 25th (Burns Night). Otherwise a loner. Tends to never leave the family nest, i.e. lives with mother.
Is approachable: mostly harmless.
Likes: cash.
Dislikes: stong winds and rain.
Is known to mate with sub-species: drummers, bass guitar players, singers. This is to be avoided.
Do say: How much for a photo?
Don't say: Hello, I'm from the Inland Revenue. (Also good advice when approaching farmers).
