A cuckoo who is part of a project to track the fortunes of the declining bird species has returned to the UK having clocked up record mileage, conservationists said.
PJ has completed his fifth annual migration cycle to, from and within Africa since being fitted with a satellite tag in June 2016 in King’s Forest, Suffolk, returning to the UK this spring.
He has travelled more than 50,000 miles since he was tagged, and is the first satellite-tagged cuckoo to achieve the milestone since the project by the British Trust for Ornithology (BTO) began in 2011.
He has crossed the Sahara desert 10 times, as well as making sea crossings and navigating the Atlas Mountains in Morocco and the Pyrenees in France and Spain, the trust said.
