Title: 'Extinct' bird rediscovered, not seen since 1941
Post by: Rotarran on March 06, 2015, 03:32:22 PM

Incredible that a bird thought to be extinct would be rediscovered after 70+ years.  I bet that got a lot of birders twitching ;)   Asia (especially south-east) must still hold a lot of surprises and secrets
