The Surprising Power of Your Own Backyard - @bbcearth 🌍 A wilder garden isn’t an untidy one, it’s a living one. And every small patch of habitat we create can become part of something much bigger 🐝🦋🌱 Had the pleasure of shooting the bits this side of the pond last year with this great crew 🤙🏽 Director - @cheriquepohl DoP - @josh.tarr.ii AP - @errant_sand_dune Sound - @justdrewsound You can find the film as part of the Fixing the Planet Impact Campaign on BBC Earth #fixingtheplanet 05 Oct 2026

Sharkademy 2026 Pt. 1 I’ve barely posted anything of late - the algorithm (just the name in itself) can be so nauseatingly off-putting - but after a week spent with some of the most excellent people anyone could wish to spend a week with, in salty paradise, I felt compelled. Brain and heart full. Riches suspended in 3-dimensional glass, beyond my wildest dreams, and I get to share it with a wonderful group of passionate shark nerds. Every year gives so much. Much more than the week. It buoys my love for the ocean and hardens my fortitude to do whatever I can to slow the tide of apocalypse. How can we give up when there’s so much to love and to fight for? We are the sea, we just carry it onto land in water and salt carefully balanced inside our bodies. Sharkademy 2026. Magical. 🦈 25 Sep 2026

This time last year, a birthday I’ll never forget. The sea was so choppy it took a few casualties, and when we finally stopped all I could think about was jumping in and calming my stomach. Sharks arrived within in minutes, quickly quashing that plan. It didn’t matter. How lucky I am. How lucky I was. I couldn’t count how many sharks. There is nothing like it. The whole experience. Onto the next one, Sharkademy! @sharkademyuk @celticdeep @mareco_org @_dalesailing 02 Sep 2026

Spectacular, moving, surprising, uplifting. How many superlatives I could list for this evening, but it felt monumental. In a packed auditorium, with my loving wife, friends and old colleagues scattered around, each big moment was an eruption of emotion. Emotional outpourings of love and admiration. To once again be in the presence of Sir David was something I didn’t think was likely to happen again… I think I’ve mentioned this before, but I was just totally disarmed by the opportunity. I’ve met lots of people I’ve long admired over the years, but David Attenborough is in a class of his own, and he’s so humble, one could never say that to him. When I did meet him, and chatted over lunch a couple of times, I spoke to him not about work - where to begin? - but about music, fossils, and Richmond Park, a place I’ve spent a lot of time, especially in my sister’s last years. She lived across the river, and cycling around the park was a salve to clear my head between work and her care. I’m still reeling from Friday 8th May. It will stay with me forever, just like his words, and the timing so close to my sister’s birthday. It’s all connected, coincidentally or not, my pattern-hunting mind would like to believe there is a thread. My biggest, most sincere praise to everyone’s work who contributed to this party. So many tears, all heavy with joy. 12 May 2026

My dearest sweet Jennia, happy birthday. I remain here bound to this celestial body, orbiting the sun, while you are part of what I travel through. Days pass faster than I can recall cliches. About now, we would be cutting a cake. Something rich, and brain meltingly sweet. Memories are finite, I’ll never have more photographs or videos, but the ones I have are sacred. Perhaps limitations are what we need in a life of endless possibility and access. Nevertheless, it’s a life I wish we were sharing now over phone calls and visits, walks, wanderings and wonderings, storytelling and quietness. Sometimes it might seem like you’re not here, but I hear your laugh echo through the tiny mouths of Sylvan and Amari. How did they get your laugh? What a gift. What a transcendental cosmic present that is. And so, I find a constellation to latch onto, and unload towards it like a madman in the night or a forest animal calling for a response. The exchange comes back, not in words but spirit. While I remember you, you are here. You are me, you are our family, you are my children, you are the elements and synaptic impulses of a dream. Grief is no longer a burden but an other dimensional pendant I wear around me. You come with me in my thoughts and spirit. We take care of each other. We are one, a single breath, an eternal sigh. I’ll cut a cake, and listen to your favourite song x 06 May 2026

TONIGHT 8PM, BBC ONE - “MAKING LIFE ON EARTH…” In 2024 I was fortunate to work on three projects with Sir David. One would’ve exceeded my childhood dreams. Who cannot say they hold him in the highest admiration. His voice has been a ubiquitous, gentle guide to the natural world, communicating stories of our planet with trademark compassion and reverence throughout my life. It is a childhood wonder that never dimmed. There was a moment during the making of ‘Making Life On Earth: Attenborough’s Greatest Adventure’ when I just stopped what I was doing during filming, flawed, in awe, of what he was saying. My hairs stood up in frisson, and I was moved both emotionally and spiritually. Never have I felt so inspired to keep going in this profession, even when the industry is in flux. It’s critical we all keep telling stories of the natural world, and repeat them to eachother. It’s in our nature. We are the compulsive communicators. How lucky we all are to be alive at the same time as Sir David Attenborough. The carousel is a selection of clippings in this weekend’s papers. Tune in! What an adventure it must’ve been… 03 May 2026

Coming to iPlayer 27th March 2026! The new series of Deadly 60, fully loaded with cryptic killers, aquatic assassins, marine mega-brains, from the tiniest to the most massivest. Episodes 1-5 on CBBC from Friday, with the second half to follow later in the year. If expeditions to remote places filled with charismatic animals is your thing, you're in for a treat! 18 Mar 2026

Survived 2025, pulling it back like a slingshot into the next year. Bring whatever, it’s all ours. With love, without fear, I’ll embrace all as it comes. No judgment, no expectations, with gentle focus and clear spirit. I look forward to sharing more work I’ve had the pleasure of making, with some wonderful people, as they’re released. Now I look forward to this time to do little, for the new year will launch at top speed! ✈️ 💫 🐋 21 Dec 2025

Parenthood: Freshwater Some of my favourite stills and moments behind the scenes with Owen Carter and Laura Pennafort captured on location for @silverback_films on the Parenthood series for @bbcone It was an explosion of turtles, erupting over the course of 10 days. Millions pulsated into the Rio Guapore. Though many are picked off right from the off, plenty make it into the water. It’s a unique view into what the giant Amazon River turtles have to go through in that most vulnerable time of their lives, let alone all the other trials, so that they may return to these very beaches years later as adults. All episodes on iPlayer, so don’t worry if you haven’t seen them yet! 15 Sep 2025

Tartarugas. I’m not part of the first team to film them - the story is so rich, I probably won’t be the last - but what a mark the giant Amazon River turtle has left on me. In the maximum available intent of the word awesome, they are that. In a celestial dance with the sun and the moon, river turtle mothers have to get the timing of laying just right. Everything around it is timed - mating, laying, hatching… after laying and burying their eggs, the progressing summer and increasing intensity of sunlight incubates the clutch, increasing the internal temperature by up to 4 degrees. Two months later, and the eggs are nearly ready to hatch. I won’t spoil the sequence, but we recorded the sounds inside a nest of their activity. You can hear the increasing rain and thunder, the chatter between individuals, and then pop! Yes, pop. Not scrape and squeeze, crack and emerge, no… POP! Somehow, while we’re trying to figure out how; when and why, they do it. They know. They are a millions-of-years-old expression of the environment and universe. Undoubtedly their lives are changing rapidly, year on year. The remarkable thing though, here on the Rio Guapore, was that their numbers have been increasing. Thanks to the incredible work of conservations, scientists, private sector funding, the Brazilian govt., and the troves of communicators telling their story, the year we were was an explosion of hatchlings. The sounds of thousands of tiny feet on the sand is something I’ll never forget. I fell in love with the place, with the country, the people, the food (including beans and rice). It was magical, inspiring, breath-taking, and at times brutal. Lucky to have had an excellent team to share with, both in the field and HQ. É nois, tamo junto 🐢💚🌞 Parenthood Episode 4, Freshwater is on iPlayer; the incredible Jungle episode is on tomorrow. @laurapennafort @cdimitrius @richardkirbyphotography @augustogomes_photo @rmitsuo_ @venturinidaniel @ecovale_rondonia @silverback_films @philippa_edwards @jjwilsonphoto @tara.knowles.988 @libertyrowe 30 Aug 2025

@arctangentfestival that was a hell of a weekend. Such an epic time was had. Still on recovery. Thanks for HONKIN 📷 @errant_sand_dune #tayne #atg 20 Aug 2025

I don’t know how it topped last year, but it did. My brain took some serious musical enriching. @arctangentfestival you are the best festival. Now for the warm cognitive bathing of Sir David’s voice over world class natural history filmmaking in the form of Parenthood. 17 Aug 2025
