...whitethroat is hardly alone in clocking a killer flight schedule. Among other birds of its type - like the Subalpine warbler, the Orphean warbler and the Barred warbler - annual migrations exceed 1,500 miles, sometimes over the Sahara. It might seem that another 200 miles tacked onto a several-thousand-mile journey wouldn't be too taxing.
