National Nightingale Festival
The National Nightingale Festival brings together events throughout May to give you the chance to go and hear the song of this increasingly rare bird at special venues across the east and south of England. On this edition of Nature’s Voice Jane Markham meets acclaimed folk singer Sam Lee who, with guest artists, creates concerts around a campfire to sing with nightingales. She also finds out about the continuing threat to one of the country’s most important habitats for nightingales when she talks to the RSPB’s Adrian Thomas, the campaign manager to save Lodge Hill in Kent.
