TINY WARBLER THAT FLIES FROM AFRICA TO SPEND SUMMER IN CLEETHORPES COUNTRY PARK


Incredible to think that this tiny bird, a reed warbler, has flown from the UK to Africa and back to Cleethorpes - journeys that have involved flying over the Sahara desert. The bird is only five inches long and weighs the same as a 50p coin. It is one of several that have taken up summer residence at the country park. But come September, it will be migrating back to Africa where it will spend winter.
