Slow build to the dawn chorus in April

A recording in the woodland garden starting just before sunrise.

All sorts in here; blue and great tits feeding, jackdaws, blackbirds, song thrush, robins all relaxing in the afternoon sun. And a couple of tawnies towards the end, getting ready for the night.

Sounds of the birds in the woodland garden settling down for bed and having little sing before, maybe a bath. Then they get quieter and quieter and nod off. You can hear a couple of tawny owls calling to start their night off.

Sound of the birds singing and relaxing before bed. Robins really making sure they're heard and you can also hear some birds bathing if you listen carefully.

sounds of birds at goodnestone, with crackling bonfire in the background. good amount of woodpeckers

sounds of the birds in the woodland garden, heavily featuring Song Thrush.

sounds of the woodland garden in the rain with a few birds chiming in, tawny owls included

sound from within the Cactus polytunnel at goodnestone on a rainy day

Sound of a crackling bonfire in the woodland garden at Goodnestone. You can hear me adding to the fire, the crackling fire itself, some birdsong and the odd tawny owl.
