July: Aphids, dial-up internet & Swan Upping

Father Nature

07-07-2022 • 53 mins

Parthenogenesis... viviparous... oviparous... Father might need a double operation later this month because he's clearly swallowed a dictionary preparing for this episode!!!

Father talks us through what our different senses can look forward to in July including getting a good sniff of friend of the show Timothy Grass. What you'll learn about aphids will honestly astonish you. Plus we discover the bird that was the inspiration behind the noise of dial-up internet... maybe.

Father also tells us about 'swan upping' - the event dating back to the 12th Century that you can get involved in this month - and gives his advice on hedge cutting and foraging in July.
