Summary

WOTM are getting into gardens. Brett goes to the National Trust's Hidcote Manor to track down some of the many migrants that are attracted to Britain's gardens whilst Philippa goes in search of nesting House Martins. Over the summer our gardens and parks act as international service stations for birds, butterflies, moths and other migrants. It's a place where they can feed and fuel up between destinations as far apart as Africa and Iceland. Finally, we report on the news that Crossbills are being spotted in unusual places.
