This week Matt is very lucky to have a walk around the grounds at the British Trust of Ornathology HQ with their Media Manager, Jon Carter. Jon is a life-longer birder and a fellow punk, so they had plenty to chat about! The BTO is such an important organisation and so it was a real honour to hear about some of their important work on this walk – and how you can get involved too!

Make sure to follow BTO on Instagram, X and Facebook.

If you want to find out more about volunteering for BTO head to www.BTO.org
