BBC Nature Expert Visits Bryher

A BBC natural history producer visited Bryher this week as part of a series of talks around the islands.

Andrew Cooper who is also Vice President of the Isles of Scilly Wildlife Trust spoke to a packed out audience at the Community Centre. The talk focused on the importance of protecting the biodiversity of Scilly. The presentation was part of a week of events organised by the Wildlife Trust after they were granted funding to protect heathlands on the Isles of Scilly.

Islander Kris Taylor told Scilly News that the talk was ?wonderful and illustrated clearly how important Scilly is in the world of natural history broadcasting.?

Mr Cooper has been a wildlife film-maker since 1979 and has made thirty natural history films for BBC television.
