Chris Skinner's Countryside Podcast
Episode 48: New Arrivals
Chris Skinner and Matthew Gudgin observe the different roles of the new and devoted parents on the farm.
They're driving through High Ash Farm when Chris notices one of East Anglia's most persecuted birds enjoying a spot of sunbathing.
They revisit the site once filled with foxgloves in flower. The plants have now gone to seed and Chris explains the onward journey for them.
Matthew had the honour of cutting the ribbon and opening this year's Teasel Walk at High Ash Farm.
Back in the truck they respond to comments and questions from listeners. This week they cover daytime moths, mysterious mushrooms and how to preserve fallen apples for the birds in the winter.
