Sound Escape 219. A sandpiper serenade on the River Usk
Category: Society & Culture
Duration: 00:21:19
Publish Date: 2025-05-02 02:00:00
Description:

You pause beside the river, watching sunlight play on the rapids. Above the rush of the water, you hear the excitable snickering of common sandpipers – a pair are flying in wide circles, low over the water, their wingtips skimming the surface in a daring courtship flight.


BBC Countryfile Magazine's Sound Escapes are a weekly audio postcard from the countryside to help you relax and transport you somewhere beautiful, wherever you happen to be.


Recorded by Fergus Collins, introduced by Hannah Tribe.
