Tweet Take 5 : Goldcrest

An extended version of Tweet of the Day featuring the goldcrest with Chris Watson, Chris Baines and Rosa Gleave.

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.
