Welcome back! We’re very excited to be back for Season 2 of The Wildlife Explorer with more special guests, experts from across the Trust and lots of fun facts about the wonderful wildlife we share our Essex home with.

On today's show, we’re going to be taking an honest look at some of the issues women may feel they face when looking at a career in conservation. From periods to pink rucksacks, nothing is off-limits. We'll be taking a woodland wander in search of our elusive Essex toads and offering advice about what you can do to help our emerging spring wildlife. We also have a brand new feature called 'What 3 Birds' which will hopefully help you to ID the birds you hear in your garden or when out for a walk.
