Birdsong Radio is a tweet for fans
A radio station has replaced it's presenters, jingles and news with the sounds of a British country garden.When OneWord, a UK spoken word station, was closed down earlier this year bosses decided to play the tape instead of having dead-air - now rating are as high as they have ever been.
Over 500,000 people have tuned in to lister to the 20 minute looped recording of birds singing in chorus which is played from 6am to midnight every day.
The station faces the axe because no adverts are played and fans have started a Facebook petition to try to raise £1million to secure it's future.
Avid twitchers have noted 12 different types of bird, including the chirruping of a swallow and the scratchy warble of a spotted flycatcher on the recording.
