Rare migratory bird from Finland dies in Kenya

An Osprey bird rescued in Kenya after flying 6,948km (4,317 miles)from Finland has died due to systemic organ failure caused by starvation, the Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) has said.

The KWS added that it had planned to release the four-year-old migratory bird of prey back into the wild after helping it to recover, but it died days after being rescued.

The bird had flown from Finland where it had been ringed in 2017 and was rescued from a fishing net in western Kenya.
