Listen and learn: a beginner’s guide to identifying birdsong.
As Spring gives way to Summer, Radio 3 Breakfast presents Lucy 'Lapwing' Hodson’s guide to identifying some of Britain’s most common songbirds."I am a bird lover and all-round nature nerd. I started learning to identify birdsong when I was 22, with the help of volunteers at the RSPB. For me, the best thing about learning to recognise birds by their song is that you don’t need to see the bird to know what it is. I hope that this guide will help you start learning about the birds in your area." Listen as Lucy introduces each song in her own inimitable style.
This is a feast for the ears. Sixteen of Britain's most common and most loved birds, commented on and explained by a bird nird.
The barking owls are back. I heard one tonight. Mostly I hear them in the predawn hours before I wake up for the day. Such a wonderful way to wake up to a new day :D
