Birdsong recorded from the edge of Dalby Forest one misty morning in September.

As well as the robin's gorgeous atmospheric singing there are two crows contact calling and a wren alarm calling (the rattling) which becomes two birds alarm calling. Obviously something's upset them. A great spotted woodpecker with a 'chip' call (01:10). Goldcrests with seeep seeep call (might be a treecreeper - they have a similar contact call). Then a wood pigeon comes in and a robin's alarm call can be heard (the tic tic itc call).
At 4:36 lots of swallow alarm calls.
Coal tit calls.(05:50 and just before). Then a chaffinch call (06:08) - some early on too but this one is clearest.
At least 2 if not 3 territorial robins.
The chief chorister is a robin, although there are lots of contributions from other feathered singers and squawkers, and even a brief spell of bellowing from a huge bull who was making his voice heard from a nearby field.
