Here we go... so excited to finally unveil the trailer for our latest feature documentary, The Eagle With The Sunlit Eye. The film tells the latest chapter in the epic story of our relationship with the White Tailed Eagle, the only apex predator ever reintroduced to Britain.

"How British politics lost touch with reality" - great (if depressing) column from @stephenkb Leaves me wondering, though, how on earth do we get away from this vicious circle? ft.com/content/79514511-bc90… via @ft

"Commissioner Duke Phillips, who represents ranchers on the commission, said he learned of the first release — which he had helped orchestrate for more than a year — when he saw it on television the following day." opportunities missed, lessons not learnt

Honoured to say that we took home the People's Choice Award at @kendalmountain last weekend. For an environmental film to connect to audiences on that level is so humbling. Thanks to everyone who came to watch, and to @leeinthelakes & @GloriaDickie for a great Q&A after the film!

I dedicated this award to John Love, the man behind the Scottish reintroduction of the white tailed eagle to the Isle of Rhum in the 1970s, who passed away recently.

It’s the largest outdoor festival in the world, with an audience that is so engaged in all things wild, so we’re so excited to bring this story to Kendal in November. The screening will be followed by a Q&A and discussion, where we'll be joined by @leeinthelakes.

Beyond sad. Feels like sacrilege on a biblical scale.

WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT How could this happen? I feel like someone has plunged a dagger into my heart. This is one of England's most iconic trees. A symbol of Northumberland. Part of the historic landscape. So much more than a tree.
