Open Country - Radio 4 on the Calf of Man with David Lindo, the Urban Birder.


 BBC Radio 4's programme "Open Country", recorded in the Isle of Man on 15th September, was broadcast this afternoon. You can still listen to it  by clicking on the link below or by searching for "Open Country" on www.bbc.co.uk/radio4

There's a nice photo of David Lindo with our very own Anne Kaye too!

You may remember that David Lindo also visited Ballachurry Reserve very briefly before heading back to the airport. ( See Blog post for 22nd September)  I was notified earlier today that this part of their visit, as well as a recording made at Eary Cushlin, would not be included on this occasion. The Programme's editor had decided to limit today's broadcast to the Calf and the coast. However, they wish to return to the Island again and have promised to spend longer at Ballachurry Reserve in order "to do it justice".

Please do listen to the programme - I think you will find it interesting.
