Wildlife 'firsts' include Norfolk's only sighting of a Balearic shearwater and a beetle not seen in Northern Ireland for more than 100 years
The biggest survey to date of nature along Britain's coastline has uncovered a host of "wildlife firsts".
More than 3,400 species were recorded at 25 National Trust locations along the coastline of England, Wales and Northern Ireland in the charity's largest ever wildlife survey. A handful have either been seen in a new habitat for the first time or "rediscovered" after going unseen for many years.
