I storyboarded, designed and animated this short film for the BBC.
More than a quarter of a century ago a British expedition unearthed a unique bird's wing in the mud of the plains of Ethiopia. It was the only evidence of the existence of the Nechisar Nightjar - a species of bird that had never been seen before. This wing became a totem for devoted birdwatchers like the Vernon Head from South Africa, who set off on a mission to find the elusive bird.
Thanks for watching!
