Ella Roles is a keen bird watcher who is passionate about sharing experiences of the natural world with others through guiding and events. She is the coordinator for this year’s Bruny Island Bird Festival, held in March, which brings together science, conservation, community and creativity on the little island of the east coast of Tasmania. We explore the many facets of the role she takes facilitating people’s experiences in the natural world, and are introduced to some of the incredible birds of lutruwita/Tasmania. 

The Bruny Island Bird Festival will run from the 15th - 17th of March 2024.

Shoutout to Daniel Kowald for the intro music and the Bellendena Small Grants Scheme for their support.
