Join Holly Peek from Orkney Native Wildlife Project, live from an RSPB Orkney bird reserve, to learn more about Orkney’s native birds. You need a parabolic microphone – which, as she shows, you can make for yourself out of simple materials. And then you can listen more closely to a whole range of Orkney birds and make high-quality recordings of their calls and songs.

Numbers are limited to 30, booking essential, £2. Here is the booking link.

The Festival ticket system is kindly provided by e-availability, Forres and Inverness.
