Tweet Take 5 : The Curlew

An extended version of Tweet of the Day featuring the curlew with Andy Radford, Amy Liptrot and Martin Hughes-Games

The bubbling calls of the curlew, the largest of our European wading birds, brings joy to a summer upland as it does to the estuary in the depths of winter. For this episode we bring you three thoughts of the curlew gathered together in a longer format from some of the best loved editions from the Radio 4 series Tweet of the Day.

This extended version of Tweet of the Day features behavioural biologist Professor Andy Radford, writer Amy Liptrot and wildlife presenter Martin Hughes-Games.
