International Dawn Chorus Day

16 early birds went to BBOWT’s Homefield Wood this morning, to experience the wonder of the dawn chorus. Despite a fallen tree trying to scupper our arrival, it was worth the effort!

We were delighted with the sights and sounds of up to 21 species – a cacophony of song in the peace and quiet of the rising sun

What a way to start the day and fill your soul Thank you Catherine and David.
