The great British birding show
Join Chris as he travels the English countryside with extreme birder Lee Evans.
Lee Evans is bird mad, also known as a twitcher, and he's become notorious in a nation of bird-lovers, as the man who’ll go to any lengths for his bird obsession.
Lee has driven 2.2 million miles over in England and Ireland since 1977 looking for birds, he’s seen 594 different species. On this episode of THE WILD, we’ll look at what it takes to find a few more. You can learn more about birding in the UK by visiting RSBP or learn about The Great Backyard Bird Count.
THE WILD is a production of KUOW in Seattle in partnership with Chris Morgan and Wildlife Media. It is produced by Matt Martin and edited by Jim Gates. It is hosted, produced and written by Chris Morgan. Fact checking by Apryle Craig. Our theme music is by Michael Parker.
