Firstly, I’ll explain ‘Canned Wildlife’ – before digital-technological advancements, documentaries were filmed on reels of tape (filmstrip), which were kept in canisters – so whatever the subject one filmed, essentially, was canned.
Growing up in the semi-rural south Birmingham, bordering north Worcestershire; with a deep affinity for nature from a very early age, I like to promote and focus on wildlife in and around the West Midlands – thus achieving a feature on BBC Midlands Today, twice! Plus I have made packages for a local station, formerly Birmingham TV.
Over the years I have volunteered for different projects with the Bat Conservation Trust, the Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust, the RSPB, Birmingham Wildlife Conservation Park, The Wildlife Trust and the National Trust, engaging visitors, other volunteers and staff, about the wildlife seen on site.
Sharing my passion for the natural world, I co-produced and co-presented The Wild Side on Cambridge TV, showcasing conservation and encouraging people to get out and see wildlife.
A series of my short videos I made entitled Wildlife Monthly, were featured by Reader’s Digest Magazine for over a year. My videos often feature a conservation message and always encourages people to get out and see wildlife for themselves!
For two years I made videos at the BBC’s Gardeners’ World Live Show at the NEC, Birmingham – advocating wildlife gardening; interviewing the Editor-in-Chief of Gardeners’ World Magazine, two presenters from the show, and several show garden winners, all about the nature aspect of gardening, how important it is, and what they had done to encourage wildlife in their show gardens.
