A hand-reared rook who'd been with the same foster family since he was a chick suddenly disappeared as his owners prepared to announce their engagement. Joe Greenwood had nursed the ailing bird named Fagin back to health after finding him three years ago, during which time he'd become tame enough to perch on the sofa and watch TV with his human keeper.
However, as Joe was about to pop the question to his partner Jessica, Fagin vanished - the pair joking that he'd taken flight in a fit of jealousy. "Fagin has always been quite territorial and can get a bit jealous, said Joe, 29, from Prestatyn.
"If I put an arm around Jess he’ll give me a peck. And if she hugs me when I get home from work, she also might get a peck from him."
