Chris Skinner's Countryside Podcast
Science:Nature
Chris Skinner and Matthew Gudgin lament the unusually wet winter and its impact on the British countryside. Chris shares with us his favourite type of tree, the Yew Tree, which flowers in the winter months. He tells us about its historical significance and association with religious sites.
They observe roe deer in the woodland and discuss its behaviour and characteristics. They also explore the flowering of the box and dog's mercury plant, both of which are indicators of ancient woodland.
The pair answer listeners questions on the early appearance of bees and the behaviour of geese during the mating season.
