What's the weirdest thing you've ever found on a beach?  Listen to this episode and find out how rewarding litter picking within the friendly Portobello community can be.  You'll also hear from Keep Porty Tidy organiser, Colin Cornwall, on his strangest find, latest projects and his lifelong love of Portobello.  With the usual Edinburgh wind, lots of beachgoers and some giant fake seagulls as well as a few real ones, there was a lot going on, but we managed to find out how you too can volunteer, or just enjoy Edinburgh's special and unique city beach - without dropping litter! 

Welcome to this new podcast seeking out Edinburgh's green spaces.  I started by diving into some gorgeous nature sights and sounds right in the heart of the city.  Jim Heath, Chair of the Friends of Easter Craiglockhart Hill told Edinburgh Outdoors about the hill's unique nature, wildlife and history.  From sparrowhawks to overgrown bowling greens, the Hill is a wonderful place to find views, tranquility and opportunities to volunteer.
