Notes

The cuckoo could disappear from British shores as experts prepared to classify it as an endangered species for the first time.

Ornithologists say fewer birds are making the annual 6,000 mile migration because food and water sources are drying up in Africa.

Dr David Noble, principal ecologist at the British Trust for Ornithology, said global warming is making the arduous migration even more perilous.
