A bird species not seen for almost 140 years has been rediscovered in Thailand, conservationists confirmed today.

The large-billed reed warbler, described by the charity Birdlife International as “the world’s least-known bird”, was first discovered in India in 1867 when a single specimen was collected in the Sutlej valley.
