Little Grebe Caistron Coquetdale

Sadly now lost, probably forever the 'jangling keys' call of the Corn Bunting. Wiped out by modern farming methods. Listen also to the sounds of insects in this recording from years ago. Despite the ongoing extinction of wildlife from our farmland the present Tory government thinks its a great idea to licence bee killing pesticides. https://www.bbc.com/news/newsbeat-59995387

Noisy Jackdaw at Warkworth Castle Northumberland

Recorded by artist and author MiE Fielding. Completely hidden in the undergrowth on Iona, so apologies for the fluctuating volume as the bird moved it's head unseen. The Corncrake was a once familiar sound in Coquetdale but alas no more due to modern farming methods. It would be nice to see an introduction scheme in suitable habitat.
