A year ago I took a deep breath, trusted my skills & resourcefulness & set up as a freelancer – here are the highlights. I’ve loved the broad range of projects, from video editing & film making to podcasts & design. I learned loads & am indebted to those that gave me help & work!

🤔 What do raccoons, purple pitcher plant, signal crayfish & yellow-legged hornet have in common? No joke - they're all on the GB invasive non-native species alert list!

🎧 On the next #CountingTheEarth we delve into the challenges of invasive non-native species - coming soon!

[UKCEH @UK_CEH]

@LeewWalker @PBMSatUKCEH @RachMBuch By examining dead birds of prey, we 're able to monitor and reduce chemical risks, protecting vulnerable species.
