Lily & Margot

Two parrots missing from London zoo have been found after being spotted 60 miles away near a family’s back garden. The escaped blue-throated macaws, named Lily and Margot, did not return to their enclosure after their usual routine of flying freely, and were subsequently missing for six days. Finally zookeepers tracked them down in Cambridgeshire, and reported that the parrots flew into their arms.
