Tropical bird on Heathrow flight home for Christmas

A tropical bird that was found exhausted on a Sussex beach has had an easier journey home - on a 12-hour flight from Heathrow.

Norman, a red-footed booby, was nursed back to health by the RSPCA and flown to the Cayman Islands by British Airways on Friday.

It is not known how the seabird reached the south coast of England.

He will join a flock of fellow booby birds at a nature reserve. The RSPCA said he would be home for Christmas.
