A BIRD that went extinct in the UK hundreds of years ago has been spotted in the Cheshire skies.

Cheshire Wildlife Trust has shared their excitement after a white stork was seen flying over the county.

Darren Banks, the trust’s land management officer, couldn’t believe what he was seeing.

He said: “I thought it was a common crane at first but after watching it for a while I realised it was a white stork!

“It was fantastic to witness it circling overhead with its incredible wing span."
