Tweet Take 5 : Cetti's Warbler
An extended version of Tweet of the Day celebrating the illusive Cetti's warbler featuring, Bill Oddie, Lindsey Chapman and Stephen Moss
Until the early 1960's the explosive song of this rarely seen drab and secretive bird was absent from Britain. Arriving in the south east of England in 1961 with a liking damp areas close to wetlands, today the song of the Cetti's warbler can now be heard in reedbeds and wetland as far north as Yorkshire. In this extended version of Tweet of the Day this new member of the British fauna provides the story as told by comedian and birdwatcher Bill Oddie, TV and radio presenter Lindsey Chapman and author and naturalist Stephen Moss.
