In a programme to mark International Dawn Chorus Day, broadcaster and Farming Today presenter Anna Hill tells the story of rising very early on a Spring morning to experience the dawn chorus in her local woods. We join Anna on a journey through the sounds of the dawn chorus as the sun gradually rises, from the familiar songs of the robin and the wren, to the orchestral drone of the wood pigeon and sustained melodies of the blackbird. These chorusing birds are mainly males, staking out their territory and showing off to prospective mates. Presented by Anna Hill and produced by Jo Peacey. The Studio Engineer was Ilse Lademann. This programme is a ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Audio Bristol production for Radio 4.
