In this week's episode Kate and Stephen talk to Dr Francis Daunt of the UK Centre for Hydrology and Ecology about why seabirds are behaving strangely - and even dying - down the UK's East Coast. Over the last few weeks reports have come in of birds feeding in unusual areas and members of the public have been finding dead guillemots and razorbills along the coastline. We explore whether climate change is involved and the theory that toxic algae may be playing a part in these disturbing events.
Kate and Stephen also hear from Sarah-Jayne Foster about the exciting new green space being constructed in Glasgow's Botanic Garden as part of RSPB Scotland's campaigning around COP26.
