Episode 143: Tales from Wedge Island: Part 1

Venturing out from the usual recording room, Olly is camping on the uninhabited Wedge Island in order to research the behaviour of two seabirds: little penguins and short-tailed shearwaters. To help her are five fantastic volunteers: Madi McLatchie, Javed Riaz, Benjamin Viola, Sophia Volzke, and Jas Allnutt. For Part 1 in a double bill, join Olly and her volunteers as they take you through some of the highs and lows of field biology. It’s not a glamorous life, but it sure is an exciting one. Show theme music: Kevin MacLeodHost: Olly Dove (@littledove440)Production: Olly Dove (@littledove440)Media & Promotion: Kate Johnson (@KatePlantPhys), Mibu Fischer (@miburose), Olly Dove (@littledove440)
