The Life of Pine
Presenter Chris Sperring walks around the Pinetum in Bedgebury Kent, a large parkland devoted entirely to the preservation of pine tree's. This is a perfect forum for natural history because regardless of weather and seasons the stars of the show are there in all their splendour. You can literally see pine tree's from every corner of the earth: from Japan to the Middle East and from Scotland to the Pacific North west.
But there's another delight: Flitting back and forth and filling the air with lovely sounds are the finches - those birds so skilled at picking the seeds out of pine cones. And there's one species in particular that Chris Sperring discovered the Pinetum is a hot spot for. The Haw Finch. As he put it, a finch of parrot proportions. A spectacular and rare bird in a perfect setting. |
