Typically birdcaging is at the junction of the lead and the insulation with separation of the strands there.   I looks like the lead was improperly tinned before it was wrapped around the turret.   I would say it would be minimum acceptable.

I'd like to know if the strand separation at the end of the wrap is birdcaging, that is, if it is a defect condition. I attach the link of the photo:
