The artwork
Four illustrations for the top of the Today page, and the clips hidden
behind them. Which one shows depends on the hour at the roost — or on whether the
station is sending anything at all.
Tap any illustration to play its clip. Times are the
station's own, from config.timezone, not yours — someone reading in London sees
what the roost is doing. Morning and afternoon share a clip. Clips start muted and looping,
with controls to unmute, and none of them downloads until you press play.

The illustration is a button. Clicking it opens the matching clip in an overlay — no label, no hint, which is the whole idea. It is the one bit of the site that is there to be found rather than read.
