Joy for birdwatchers as rare duksy thrush spotted in British village

Twitchers are flocking to the Duke of Devonshire's famous country seat to catch sight of the long-distance wanderer from the Far East.

By rights, the striking dusky thrush - a distant relative of our blackbird - should have been wintering in China or Vietnam.

Somehow, the bird with its distinctive brown speckled plumage and dazzling eye-markings, migrated in the opposite direction and arrived in the picturesque Derbyshire village of Beeley.-Read More

Discover some of history's forgotten facts

When Churchill Slaughtered Sheep and Stalin Robbed a Bank

Was your old high school history teacher wrong?

You can’t imagine so; she taught you all about World Wars I and II, America’s past, and British history. But could you have missed something? What don’t you know? Was your high school history teacher wrong or, as in “When Churchill Slaughtered Sheep and Stalin Robbed a Bank” by Giles Milton, was history merely hidden?

Say you’re looking in your cupboard for a plate, when you stumble across a china cup you’ve never seen before. Something similar happened to Giles Milton while he was researching one thing and found something else. History, he learned, is full of those little “historical nuggets.”

Take, for instance, when Winston Churchill explored the possibility of using biological weapons against the Nazis. He couldn’t, of course, experiment on humans, so he tried his methods on sheep. What happened affected an island off the coast of Scotland for the next 45 years.

And then there’s the Chevalier d’Eon, who was very much involved in espionage and politics for several countries in the late 1700s. As much as the Chevalier changed jobs, gender was also scandalously changed until few knew the truth. The Chevalier finally had herself legally declared female by French courts; it was only when she died that the truth was finally revealed.-Read More
