The Scottish Wildlife Trust’s National Members’ Day, held in Edinburgh recently, saw wildlife filmmaker Simon King together with a number of special guests, inspire a bumper crowd of 300 members about the wonders of Scotland’s wildlife.

A film showing highlights of the day is now online.

Simon King, star of BBC shows such as Springwatch and Shetland Diaries told the audience about his lasting love affair with Scotland, and was later interviewed about his life by broadcaster and Trust Ambassador Stephen Jardine.

Another Trust Ambassador, the adventurer and cyclist Mark Beaumont, was part of the People’s Postcode Lottery Question Time panel. The panel of environmental experts and enthusiasts discussed contentious issues raised by the audience, including wind farms, culling badgers, careers in conservation and the reintroduction of the European lynx.
