Between August 2008 and April 2018 I spent a number of years working on Signy Island (South Orkney Islands) and Bird Island (South Georgia) for the British Antarctic Survey (BAS). I worked as a Zoological Field Assistant on the penguin, seal and albatross long-term monitoring programme. After a 5 year break, i'll be heading back down to Bird Island in Janary 2024 for another dose of penguin work.

This blog gives readers an insight into my day-to-day life in the Antarctic, from my first trip south in 2008 to the present day.

End of the season

I fell miserably behind with my blog this season, and am now back in the UK after a busy but very enjoyable season. I am working for the RSPB for the summer, tracking seabirds at various uninhabited islands off the North West of Scotland. I'll be back at Signy in Autumn 2014 and hopefully will be able to pick up on the blog then, so watch this space...
