I get to spend a lot of time talking and drinking tea with farmers, many coming from multi-generational farming families, learning about the local area and the changes seen through their eyes. Last spring I helped with lambing too which was a completely new experience.

Fieldwork is always a highlight. One day I was checking on some rare Montane Willow saplings at Loch Avon – a remote loch surrounded by high peaks and rock. These trees were among the first in a project to restore a rare habitat now effectively extinct in the UK.

Last year I had the opportunity to present my research at the International Symposium on Avian Influenza in Newfoundland, Canada. It was a fascinating few days of discussing the science and impacts of this disease with researchers from across the globe.

Last summer I led an all-female field team on Mousa, Shetland. We had been up all night waiting for our tagged bird to return, and at the end of a successful night, we were rewarded with a spectacular Aurora Borealis!

Any day in which I can explore the Fens in Spring and hear the whickering of Black-tailed Godwits after they return from their migration is special. It’s always beneficial to remind ourselves of the work we are doing and that it helps make a difference.

Whilst recently identifying hundreds of camera trap images, I came across an extremely rare observation of the endangered Giant Gound Pangolin. To get a record of this very elusive species was extremely exciting and uplifting.
