As regular CFZ-watchers will know, for some time Corinna has been doing a column for Animals & Men and a regular segment on On The Track... particularly about out-of-place birds and rare vagrants. There seem to be more and more bird stories from all over the world hitting the news these days so, to make room for them all - and to give them all equal and worthy coverage - she has set up this new blog to cover all things feathery and Fortean.

A swan has caused a queue of aircraft at Heathrow, leaving passengers waiting while staff tried to escort it from the runway.

Aviation enthusiast Daniel, who was flying back to his home in Sweden, caught the incident on camera as he waited for his flight at Heathrow Airport.

He told the BBC that he and several other onlookers watched the chase and said that the situation was "handled very well".
