The village of Beeley has been
struggling to cope with a huge influx of birdwatchers who have flocked to
Derbyshire in their thousands to see a rare dusky thrush.
The arrival of the bird – more
usually seen in China or Japan in winter - has sparked huge excitement in the
birdwatching community across the UK and abroad.
More than 2,000 people have
visited the village in the past week – around 1,000 last weekend - bringing
business to the area's pubs, cafes and B&Bs, but the volume of people has
caused parking problems.
