In this episode Ricky and Niall chat about the annual spectacle of the dawn chorus, what it is and why birds sing their hearts out in springtime.
This episode includes lots of bird song audio for you to enjoy, whilst the Cuckoo is the chosen species for the Bird of The Week slot.
Special thanks this episode goes to Seán Ronayne of irishwildlifesounds.com for use of his bird recordings.
