This week we return to our visit to the Global Birdfair in Rutland. In the second Plodcast interview of the festival, Plodcast host Fergus met wildlife expert, writer and TV presenter Ajay Tegala to talk about his extraordinary life as a wildlife ranger at legendary Wicken Fen nature reserve.

Later join the Plodcast team for a round up of listener emails and messages – and updates on the latest wildlife news.

Ajay's latest book Ranger Life and Rewildling Wicken Fen, published by The History Press, is out now in paperback.

Special thanks to Charlie Bingham for organising the podcasting at the Birdfair and to Oscar Henderson for the onsite production.
