In Search of a Mega Tick

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

There are ordinary bird-watchers and there are
'twitchers'. Each autumn this strange breed descends on the Isles of Scilly in search of their quarry. Sue Hicks joined last year's migration and discovered that twitchers have their own language and plumage, and are driven by a compulsive urge to 'tick'.
