Modern phoenix: The bird brought back from extinction in Japan

Description

Every morning for the last 14 years, Masaoki Tsuchiya has set out in his car before dawn to search for a bird brought back from extinction in Japan. The bird he is looking for is called "toki" in Japanese and its presence in the trees, skies and rice paddies of Tsuchiya's home on Sado island is testament to a remarkable conservation programme.
