I think the bird was probably sacrificed. The band on its leg indicates that it was from a commercial breeder. Perhaps the talk of the scalp and baseball cap was just wink wink nudge nudge about what they did to the bird.

Also in support of my theory that the "bloody scalp" comment is a veiled reference to killing the bird: it also looks like the feathers have been "skinned" from the bird's breast.
