A gentle nature ramble in rural Dorset – with a magnificent dawn chorus

Tune in to a delightful Dorset dawn chorus with nature writer Kevin Parr – in episode 5, season 5 of the BBC Countryfile Magazine podcast

We head to Dorset this episode with nature writer and angler Kevin Parr to hear a magnificent dawn chorus in his village, tucked away in the hills.

Kevin then takes us on his favourite local walk onto a local hill to hear find singing skylarks and stunning views of the Jurassic Coast. Listen out for the surprise finish when Kevin discovers fantastic beasts in his very own garden… It's a perfect escape into the countryside when you can't get there yourself.
