  • Summary

  • In this episode we hear about life on the edge. In the far south west of Cumbria, on the southern tip of Walney Island is a very special nature reserve providing a haven to grey seals and many resident and migratory birds.

    Beth Churn, Marine Conservation Officer, takes us to a hide overlooking the seal colony and talks about their behaviour, what we're doing to protect them and the joy in seeing this colony thrive and grow over the last ten years.

    South Walney Nature Reserve is better known locally for it's colony of gulls. Bekka Watts, Shorebird Warden, talks to us about these and all the other birds that call it home, or that rely on the protection the reserve gives to birds on migration.
