[Others 其他] Has the recent anticyclone done something to the birds?

I think the rectrices were damaged on the Greylag. That points to captive origin. There was a Red-crested Pochard found a few summers ago at Mai Po which was badly damaged. So even though I would like to believe otherwise, I would bet the Ferruginous Duck was not wild origin. This species I believe is also relatively commonly kept in waterfowl collections.
