A new series of Tweet of the Day for Sunday morning revealing personal and fascinating stories from some fresh voices who have been inspired by birds, their calls and encounters.

Summer visitors to western and northern woodlands, the pied flycatcher is a magical bird. Favouring damp oak woods brimming with ferns and lichen, the male pied flycatcher dazzles with his laundry while wing bars over dark body. From when they first arrive in Britain, their see-saw song provides an acoustic sound to these woodlands, though as biologist, presenter and podcaster Gillian Burke reveals seeing one is not all that easy.
