News - Four great bustard chicks born on Salisbury Plain + Link to Great Bustard Group

Conservationists hoping to reintroduce the great bustard to the UK are celebrating the hatching of four chicks.

The world's heaviest flying bird was hunted to extinction in the UK in 1832, but reintroduced to Salisbury Plain, in Wiltshire, six years ago.

This is the second year in which the birds have been bred successfully in the wild.

The RSPB said this was "fantastic news".

This is wonderful news!!!!

Thats brilliant news SM. I googled The Great Bustard Group and have added the link to their site on this thread so we can keep it all together.
There is a great little video of the chicks on the site, well worth a watch. The site also has lots of news and information.
Hope you didn't mind me altering your title and adding the link to the group here.
