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

Listen on

Episode notes

You're wandering along a lane 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.

beautiful, wherever you happen to be. Recorded and presented by Hannah Tribe. Image by Getty.
