Natural World- Saving Our Seabirds

TONIGHT 9pm BBC2!
Britain’s seabirds are in crisis; catastrophic breeding failures have swept along our shores, hitting many of our colonies of puffins, arctic terns, guillemots and skuas. Roy Dennis, former warden of the seabird island of Fair Isle, is desperate to understand what’s happening. During the summer of 2006 Roy visited many of Britain’s most spectacular colonies in search of answers, from the Welsh island of Skomer to the outer reaches of the Shetland Isles. What if anything can be done to help and what does the future hold for the amazing seabirds of Britain.
