Rare bird receives a grand welcome in Beijing

The rare spotting of a European robin - native to the United Kingdom and large parts of Europe - near Beijing Zoo has surprised Chinese ornithologists. Crowned as the UK's national bird after a nationwide ballot in 2015, the robin attracted a large group of photographers and onlookers, who braved the cold to witness the majestic bird. A European robin was last sighted in the Chinese capital in 2014.
