S1:E10 - Autumn Arrivals

The Wildlife Explorer

Show Notes

We've reached our 10th episode! Today, we’re going to be talking all about autumn arrivals - from birds to mushrooms, there’s lots of new discoveries popping up during this season. So, if you struggle to tell your fieldfares from your redwings and your fly agarics from your jelly ears, we’ve got you covered (with some bonus bird impressions too..!)

We’ll also be explaining how and why birds choose to migrate such vast distances, as well as talking about a very important event for environmental issues across the globe - COP26. This is the UN’s climate change conference being held in Glasgow this year, starting on October 31. We will be asking MP’s to ensure this conference tackles both the climate and nature crisis and you can do your bit to help too.

Thank you to everyone who has joined us on our nature journey so far, keep an ear out for our bonus Christmas special episode in December and we will see you next year for lots more inspiring nature stories, special guests and updates about our conservation work.
