Lucy Lapwing

Lucy Lapwing grew up in west Lancashire in the 90s. As a kid, she was fascinated by things that scuttled and fluttered and slimed, but it was only as an adult that she really came to know the nature under her nose. Now a wildlife campaigner, Lucy writes about nature on Instagram and works behind the scenes on BBC Springwatch. Outside - and indeed inside - of work, you're likely to spot her rootling in the mud, collecting feathers and bones, or whispering compliments to spiders. Lucy now lives on the Isle of Bute.
