  • Summary

  • Chris Skinner and Matthew Gudgin begin by watching a charm of goldfinches busy feeding on their favourite food.

    They head to a different part of the farm to watch the latest colony occupying a hole in a sweet chestnut tree. Chris describes the various species that trees can support throughout their lives.

    Chris quietly admits to Matthew a plant that has appeared in his wild bird winter seed mix that's grown in error at High Ash Farm.

    They get excited as they talk about a moth species that has been rediscovered after a 50 year absence!

    Out of the wind and in the warmth of the farm truck, the pair answer listener questions; this week featuring a photo of a wheatear, a video of congregating swallows, migrators and pollinators.
