Tweet Take 5: Starling
An extended version of Tweet of the Day featuring the starling with Joe Acheson, Melissa Harrison and Kitty Macfarlane.
The raucous chattering and calls of the starling are for many a familiar sound near to our homes. Yet each winter thousands upon thousands of starlings arrive in the United Kingdom bringing with them mesmerising aerial displays. In this extended version of Tweet of the Day, we hear from three people whose creativity is inspired by this common songster. Composer, producer and musician Joe Acheson, novelist and nature writer Melissa Harrison and singer songwriter Kitty Macfarlane.
Producer Andrew Dawes
