A Solan Goose Summer, with Polly Pullar
from Paperboats Hosted by Ian Grosz and Station House Media Unit
Ian talks with Naturalist, Photographer and Nature Writer Polly Pullar about Polly’s life-long relationship with Nature and the plight of the gannet. Polly talks about the beginnings of her deep connection with Nature and wildlife growing up in Ardnamurchan on the west coast of Scotland, how that brought her solace through a difficult period and continues to inspire her passionately today. She discusses the plight of Scottish wildlife under the pressures of climate change and habitat loss, and reads from her Paperboats Zine piece, ‘A Solan Goose Summer.’ Polly Pullar has regular columns in numerous magazines including The Scots Magazine and BBC Wildlife Magazine. Her most recent book, The Horizontal Oak – A Life in Nature, was published by Birlinn in 2022. See www.pollypullar.com to learn more.
