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.

Broadcaster Anneka Rice enjoys watching Canada geese flying to and from their feeding areas near to her home. Geese have a number of words associated with their flight, however when flying very close together the the collective name is a plump - a plump of geese. To help reduce wind drag on an individual bird as they fly geese will regularly change the lead bird at the head of the flock, which as Anneka suggests reminds her of classic banter from early flying squadrons.
