Episode 3 of 5

Brett Westwood offers help identifying birds you're likely to see and hear on our rocky shores. With Chris Watson. From 2010.

Brett Westwood is joined by keen bird watcher, Stephen Moss, on the Devonshire coast.

With the help of wildlife sound recordist Chris Watson they offer a practical and entertaining guide to identifying the birds which you're most likely to see and hear on rocky shores around Britain's coastline; birds like Rock Pipit, Turnstone, Herring Gull and Lesser Black-backed Gull.

This programmes helps identify more of the birds found around our British coastline in places like sandy beaches, rocky shores, sea cliffs, off-shore islands and estuaries.

Not only is there advice on how to recognise the birds from their appearance, but also how to identify them from their calls and songs.
