Tweet Take 5 : The Woodpigeon

An extended version of Tweet of the Day featuring the woodpigeon with Hugh Thomson, Michaela Strachan and Tristan Gooley

The the plump waddling woodpigeon is a familiar sight, and sound, across the British countryside. To some it is a pest of crops, to others the woodpigeon brings a sense of order and calm to our daily lives. For this episode we bring you three thoughts gathered together in a longer format from some of the best loved editions from the Radio 4 series Tweet of the Day.

This extended version of Tweet of the Day features writer Hugh Thomson, wildlife presenter Michaela Strachan and natural navigator Tristan Gooley.
