Sound Escape 99: The first birdsong of the year in a garden on Gower The Plodcast

    • Nature

You're in a large wildlife-rich garden on Gower, a small and beautiful peninsular in South Wales. At this time of year, the beech hedges are orange, the leaves are curled, crisp and dry. At their base, blackbirds turn over the ones that have fallen, looking for treasure.
BBC Countryfile Magazine's Sound Escapes are a weekly audio postcard from the countryside to help you relax and transport you somewhere
beautiful, wherever you happen to be. Recorded and presented by Hannah Tribe. Image by Getty.
