Hello everyone.

I presume you've all seen this item from the New Zealand Herald by now, but

Bird believed to be extinct discovered in Fiji

29.11.2003 6.30 am
A bird believed to have been extinct for more than a century has been found
alive and warbling in Fiji.

BirdLife Fiji researchers re-discovered the long-legged warbler
(Trichocichla rufa), last seen in 1894, and managed to photograph it for the
first time. The 12 pairs of the rare bird were found in Wabu Forest Reserve.
