Mya-Rose Craig aka Birdgirl
Listen now
Description
Mya-Rose Craig is extraordinary. Known to many as Birdgirl, she travelled far and wide on a quest to see half the world's bird species before her 18th birthday. She's also an environmentalist, diversity activist, writer, speaker and broadcaster - and has an honorary doctorate in science from the University of Bristol. As well as her birding achievements, we chat about her passion for the natural world and encouraging young people and under-represented communities to connect with it. She also talks us through some of her amazing work, including founding the Black2Nature charity and her new book, We have a dream.
