Arjun Dutta on the Bee-Eater
For recent graduate and wildlife sound recordist Arjun Dutta the sight of bee-eaters in Britain reminds him of university research in Bulgaria.
A new series of Tweet of the Day for Sunday morning revealing personal and fascinating stories from some fresh voices who have been inspired by birds, their calls and encounters. In this episode we highlight one of the young and emerging generation of wildlife watchers.
Wildlife sound recordist and nature watcher Arjun Dutta feels the sight and sound of bee-eaters in the British countryside is a welcome bit of the exotic. Recently while still at University he was conducting research in Bulgaria. While there his days were filled with the sights and sounds of bee-eaters chattering overhead. Back in Britain, these rare summer visitors are a splash of kaleidoscopic colour in the countryside.
