Here at the Trust, we know that many people share our enthusiasm for all things nature, and what better way to let you know what is going on in the wild than with our monthly wildlife podcast.
Each month we bring you a selection of just some of the many and varied projects that National Trust wardens encounter on a day to day basis. From Mountain hares to cuddly cows, the wildlife podcast is a great way to find out more about the great outdoors.

This month we get up at the crack of dawn to enjoy a chorus with a difference - the performers are toads, not birds! We also visit a farm saved from development by Beatrix Potter, and Matthew Oates leads us into the intimate world of the Duke of Burgandy butterfly.

This month we take a trip across the water to Brownsea island to talk to the longest serving warden on the island about the birds and beasts of Brownsea, discover just what is so special about Belted Galloway cows and what has happened to the Glanville Fritillary smuggled by 'fairies' to Weston Super Mare.

As March rolls in, we take to the hills on the search for the elusive Mountain Hare in the Peak District. We also catch up with the Trust’s only volunteer geologist in Dovedale to talk life as a volunteer and the mystery of Dovedale’s disappearing rivers. Finally, join Matthew Oates - the world’s biggest butterfly lover, as he attempts to track down the wandering caterpillars of the Marsh Fritillary butterfly.
