Bird Presentations & Workshops
There's nothing more enlivening than to be drawn into the astounding magic which surrounds us in the world of nature - or to be shown the everyday in a manner which brings fresh and inspiring insights to us. With my solid background in wildlife and birding tours as well as public speaking and presenting on our wildlife, you can be certain that I will be able to enthral and enthuse any audience.

As well as being a seasoned face-to-face public speaker, I've presented birds and wildlife across a broad range of media including television, radio and print.
I also take birding enthusiasts out of the classroom, with field workshops which have included Wader Identification, "Little Brown Bird" Identification, "Birding Basics", "Birds and Mangroves" and "Dino-birds".
