A circus of puffins on the Isle of May

Available for over a year

Every year on Scotland’s Isle of May, thousands of puffins return from a winter at sea to mate in burrows underground. As they arrive in spring, so do a team of ornithologists and conservationists and in this programme the team are joined by presenters Emily Knight and Becky Ripley who make a series of visits throughout the season to follow the breeding season and live the life of a puffin researcher, spending their days in the company of the clowns of the sea on this remote island with a captivating history.
