    This month, we’re out on the marsh - exposed beneath the fleeting February sky. Wading birds chatter and forage around us as we note the names of grasses, and hunt for sea beet and will o' the wisps. Silver fish slip through the shallows, and as we get closer to the sea a song of the shipping forecast drifts across the water.

    Jan 1 2026
    Come with us to the chilly canal for our first episode of 2026, a series themed around water. We forage for nettles along the banks and dip below the surface with a fearsome fish of the month. Above us, amid the emerging constellations, starlings murmurate, moving mountains in Cynan Jones' new telling of the Welsh tale of Branwen. And Lisa Knapp joins us as this year's folk musician, with an original song for the new year, Holly King.
