In the woods the dawn chorus never stops unlike suburbia .The noisiest are the  corvids if it’s a roost wood followed by pheasants coming down from roost .The chorus  of small birds usually blends into one unless you are aware of the individual calls .Love being in the woods at any time but that hour before dawn is the best for me .When sat in a high seat the things you see outweigh any blank session every time .
