Brian Briggs

Another chance to hear Adam Walton as he joins musician Brian Briggs of the group Stornoway at the WWT Wetlands Centre at Llanelli where he is currently working as a warden.

Stornoway's latest album "Bonxie" features field recordings of birds mixed into the music, and combines Brian's two passions of music and wildlife conservation, particularly birds and wildfowl.

Now based on Gower, where the recent album was written, Brian applies his knowledge of conservation to WWT projects including the management of wildlife habitats at the Millennium Wetland area of the site at Llanelli.Β Coming from a family of scientists, he's keen to promote the scientific approach to nature conservation.
