Chats are small robin like ground nesting birds and part of the larger thrush family. In Britain we have several species of chats the most familiar of which are the resident stonechat, often seen perched on a fence or low shrub, and the whinchat, a summer visitor to our shores where they breed mainly in the north and west. These characterful birds are a welcome distraction when seen in the countryside as we'll hear from wildlife broadcaster Michaela Strachan, novellist Melissa Harrison and presenter Steve Backshall in this extended edition of Tweet of the Day.
