BIRDS / HUMANS / MACHINES / DOLPHINS

Poems based on fieldwork by the University of Aberdeen's School of Biological Sciences researching seabird and marine mammal populations in Orkney and off the coast of North-East Scotland.

The poems integrate poetic and scientific processes, data about animal life histories and first-hand encounters with ecological fieldwork, giving voice to the non-human in surprising and original ways, blending spoken word with underwater field recordings of bottlenose dolphins.
