Episode 42: Foxes: Predator Or Vermin?
Chris glimpses the morning routine of the swallows first thing. They're considering whether they can fit in a final brood.
Matthew Gudin and Rat the dog keep up with Chris as he shares with us the super powers of clover.
Chris also talks about the predators at High Ash Farm, a topic that often divides the farming community. He describes his footage of the young fox cubs playing and shares with us a very moving story showing how it's never too late to change opinion.
