About this listen

 Atmospheric recordings of British Wildlife through the seasons by Richard Margoschis Wild Britain is a celebration of natural habitats in Britain through the seasons, from early spring to mid-winter.

The tracks have been carefully selected from the British Library Sound Archive collections to represent a wide range of wild soundscapes in different moods. From a bleak, wintry valley in Scotland to a gentle summer's morning in England woodland, they capture the varied ambience of our diverse countryside.

Living in a town the only time you get to hear the unspoilt sounds of nature is first thing in the morning before all the daily build up of traffic, factory noise and humans shatter the peace. Wild Britain allows me to put my headphones on and drift off to a place long away from the hustle and bustle of the town. The downloadable guide is the perfect partner allowing the listener to identify the individual sounds of nature.
