Tweet Take 5 : Goldcrest

Tweet of the Day

Available for over a year

Along with the firecrest, the goldcrest is Britain's smallest bird. Though often difficult to see high up in a conifer, the goldcrests' distinctive quiet call is a sure sign these delightful birds are close by as heard in this extended version of Tweet of the Day featuring wildlife sound recordist Chris Watson, naturalist Chris Baines and ecologist Rosa Gleave. Producer : Andrew Dawes for BBC Audio in Bristol
