I have lost count of the number of times that I have seen Chris speak at various events over the years and he has my utmost respect as a naturalist and campaigner.
In the light of the lockdown of our country, Chris has set up the Self-Isolating Bird Club on Twitter.
Chris and his step-daughter Megan McCubbin present a daily live show on Twitter at 9 a.m. (available to watch at any time thereafter).
I have to say that when Chris finally hangs up his binoculars, Megan would be absolutely brilliant as his successor.
The show includes “guest appearances” by video link from many other people including Chris’s colleagues from “Springwatch”, “Autumnwatch” and “Winterwatch” (Michaela Strachan, Iolo Williams and Martin Hughes-Games), chat on a huge variety of nature-related topics, lots of banter between Chris and Megan, photos and videos, a daily competition (guess the skull) and closing credits featuring slow motion film of Chris’s beloved poodles set to classical music.
The Self-Isolating Bird Club is highly recommended.
