Story summary
- Frankie, a four-month-old flamingo from Paradise Park in Cornwall, has been confirmed alive in Brittany, France, 120 miles away.
- Despite clipped feathers, she flew across the Channel after escaping on November 2.
- Paradise Park staff expressed amazement, and director Nick Reynolds said returning her is unlikely due to logistics and avian influenza risks.
- Instead, they hope Frankie integrates with a colony of greater flamingos in southern France, where she thrives.
