Come on a fascinating queer ecology walk with ecologist Connor Butler as he shares his joy at flipping logs for fun and challenging perceptions or what’s considered natural in nature.  

  

Connor takes host Claire Hickinbotham around Osterley Park in the heart of west London, where he explains why wildlife is undeniably queer.  

  

From trees that change sex to the humble woodlouse that only gives birth to females you’ll come away with a whole new take on your next walk.
