So what are the chances of this happening twice??
The Sora is not a rare bird but it is a very shy one so to catch it twice open areas within the space of a month or so, is quite the gift. Hence, the title "Finding Neverland". Neverland is, of course, that fictional island featured in the literary works of J.M. Barrie, and home to Peter Pan.
It's not an is-land but the Sora does live in wet-lands, which provide food, shelter & nesting area potentials.
The Sora is also known as the "meadow chicken", probably due to the way it "hen pecks" in its pursuit of food in the muddy marshlands but that does seem so unfair a description for such a unique looking little bird, with its almost zebra like camouflage feathering.
