Isabella Tree on the White Stork

Tweet of the Day is a series of fascinating stories about birds inspired by their calls, songs and behaviour.

Conservationist Isabella Tree describes how the bill-clattering of white storks has become a characteristic sound of spring at Knepp in West Sussex. Since 2020 they've been nesting at the top of oak trees, and are the first to breed in England for centuries. Knepp is one of two sites where the White Stork Project has established a colony, where wild white storks are now breeding with re-introduced birds.

Produced by Sophie Anton for BBC Audio in Bristol.

This programme features audio recorded at Knepp by Hazel Reeves.
