Using thermal to conserve rare bird species of conservation concern is What Matt Prior (qualified bird ringer, licenced with the British Trust for Ornithology) does in his spare time.

We spent an evening with Matt 'dazzling' to find out what he does. And this is our first of 3 short films about the use of thermal in bird conservation, to be released over the coming weeks:
