Dr Annette Fayet tells us about the Manx Shearwater; a little seabird that makes a huge journey.
Every year they breed and raise their chicks in the UK before migrating to Argentina for winter, clocking up thousands of miles in their lifetimes. But what’s the price of parental devotion? Annette discusses how the harder parents have to works, the bigger the knock-on effects to their migration and breeding the following year are, and what this has to do with what’s going on in the oceans.
Podcast produced by Emliy Elias with music by John Lyons. Shearwater sounds provided by Magnus Robb, Killian Mull-arney & The Sound Approach.
