Waders’ Lullaby

waders

Those who have visited the Edinburgh Shoreline exhibition at the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh (on until 28 October) will have seen beautiful prints by artist Fiona McAndrew of wading birds she has observed on the Firth of Forth.

Fiona has written a blog post on the research that went into making her work and in particular a video she has produced for a piece of her original music ‘Waders’ Lullaby’. Read Fiona’s update here: http://www.fionamcandrew.co.uk/making-of/

For those of you who would like to find out more about the internationally important populations of wintering birds found in Edinburgh please see the Events section of this website where you can sign up to a Shoreline winter bird walk on 10th November.

Edinburgh Shoreline is an exciting, new, community centred initiative celebrating the city’s 27km coastline.

We are rediscovering its fascinating and often unknown history and the rich plant and animal life that survives against the odds in unexpected places, and inspiring people to explore their coast and take responsibility for its future health.
