In this podcast series, we hope to enthuse and inspire people about the wildlife around them, by focussing on those species we often overlook or don't even notice but nevertheless have fascinating stories to tell. We will feature a range of animals, insects and birds from across the British Isles (and further afield), and hopefully provide some new snippets of information that anyone can enjoy. We hope you enjoy the series, and please feel free to add your comments or suggestions of species we can focus an episode on!
