Episode 45: Quarry Wildlife

Chris Skinner's Countryside Podcast

Matthew Gudgin marvels at the superb parenting skills of Mother Duck who is raising her ten ducklings at High Ash Farm.
Chris Skinner drives Matthew to the local quarry to show off the incredible wildlife zooming around this unlikely location.
Matthew then watches on as Chris forages in the undergrowth for a Wimbledon themed treat after explaining the uses of chicory.
The pair answer listener questions which this week include some unusually named fungi, opportunistic ants, bees shortages and High Ash Farm's oldest tree!
