In this episode Chris Skinner and Matthew Gudgin observe the successional woodland and its natural growth at High Ash Farm. They delight at the array of winter flowers on the woodland floor including snowdrops, violets and pansies. Chris shows how the pollen from hazel catkins moves around and Matthew points out the various types of fungi nearby. They cosy up out of the rain with a cup of tea in hand and answer listeners questions about mystery bird calls, butterflies and yellowhammers. Click here to download the MP3 file of this episode.
