Wood Sandpiper

Tweet of the Day

Available for over a year

Tweet of the Day is a series of fascinating stories about our British birds inspired by their calls and songs. Brett Westwood presents the Wood Sandpiper. Wood Sandpipers are elegant waders and just a handful of pairs breed in the UK, in wooded marshes and remote bogs of Northern Scotland. There's a chance to see them when they break their migration journey south at inland pools and marshes here. Listen out for their cheerful call that has been described as sounding like an old penny-whistle.
