Comparison with The Dectectorists? That’s high praise indeed from @yolobirder.bsky.social. One of my favourite scenes as well. ☺️ #thecuckooslea #naturewriting
Thoroughly enjoying ‘The Cuckoo’s Lea’ by @drmjwarren.bsky.social, exploring England and its past through the places named after the birds that used to be there. It reminds me of the falconers whistle scene in Detectorists, with its ghostly echoes of the past. Lovely stuff.

A year ago I made this podcast about Sky Hunter, an old BBC educational kids film (shown as part of Look and Read) about peregrines and wildlife crime. It was a nostalgic passion project but came to mean so much more. goldengrenades.com/podcast/epis...
Episode 37: Sky Hunter Special
Exploring the creation of the 1978 educational BBC drama Sky Hunter (from the BBC programme Look and Read), bird crimes then and now, and the influence it had.

Really enjoyed this! Likely to be of particular interest to the #ShropshireBirding community, given Dawn’s links to the county.
