$If You Build It\u2026 with Simon Curtin, an illustrated talk on bringing back the osprey$

If You Build It, He Will Come tells the story of an eight-year project to bring the osprey back to the Belvoir Estate in Leicestershire nearly two centuries after the bird became extinct in England. Through persistence, collaboration and coincidences, this project culminated in a successful brood of two osprey chicks in 2022, and making the national press and TV.
Simon Curtin will share his observations, detailed knowledge and research, and photographs of the project taken during his 120+ visits to the nesting platform. The book also offers a meticulously detailed and complete guide for anyone contemplating such a project themselves.
