Throughout my whole life I have had an extremely keen interest in wildlife and the natural world, and over the past two years I have taken this a lot further. I feel it is extremely important to show the younger generations the damage that mankind can cause, and to teach them that actions have consequences. Our planet is simply stunning, but it is being torn apart daily – I am committed to working hard to progress towards change. Please see my website for footage samples and information about my work surrounding wildlife conservation and film-making. I am looking into working within the business. https://sites.google.com/site/songthrushproductions/home Quick summary of acheivements: FSC Scholarship 2012 West Highland Way long-distance footpath for WarChild 2012 One days birds of prey experience 2012 Spoke in the European Parliament to 20 MEPs 2012 Filming and volunteering for Somerset Wildlife Trust 2012 - present Volunteer ranger on Ham Hill country park and West Hay Moor Reserve 2012 - present Home-based wildlife film-making/presenting 2011 - present One days filming course with Justine Evans, Max Mckay and Nick Turner 2011 Work experience at Oak and Furrows wildlife rescue for one week 2011
