A rare sighting of the American yellow warbler in New Hythe, Kent, has attracted hundreds of birdwatchers from across the UK during the Christmas period. First spotted by local Glenn Honey on Christmas Eve, the bird is considered an 'extremely rare visitor' to Britain, with its last sighting in the UK recorded in 2017. Enthusiasts have traveled long distances, with reports of up to 400 people gathering to catch a glimpse of the vibrant yellow bird, which is about the size of a robin.
