In this week's show we answer three questions from Bee, Rose and Alex with help from special guest expert Sam Lee.Sam is a folk singer and writer – author of the book The Nightingale, Notes on a Songbird – who leads adventures into the woods to play music with nightingales as they sing. Sam tells us about how nightingales sing at night, unlike most other birds and tells us about their beautiful song. Then we have a competition for you to win a copy of Sam's book for a grown up in your life!We find out why peacocks make such loud calls, because of where they come from scrubby woodland in India. We also chat about frogs, tadpoles, how they swim and the biggest ones in the world!
