"Nature is full of surprises, so the programme can investigate fascinating and challenging areas in
our relations with the natural world without being too technical or preachy. My job is brilliant because, as a link between the listener and the subject, I can discover new information and ideas which help people make up their own minds on important issues."

| A Heron feeding on a river in London |
NATURE: Unearthing听 Buried Rivers
This is a scene you would not expect to see in an urban park on the edge of Lewisham and Greenwich in London -- a heron fishing on a spring afternoon amongst reed beds.听 A few years ago Sutcliffe Park was a fairly standard urban green space.听 Grey tower blocks and a major trunk road surrounded football pitches and little else.听 But underneath the turf was buried one of London's lost rivers, and now it's been let out of its concrete pipe and is meandering through reed beds and ponds on its way to the Thames.听 In the process it has revitalised the landscape and brought the wildlife back in. In this edition of Nature Paul Evans looks at the growing success of urban river restoration right across the country and at the bus of enthusiasm that fills the river restoration movement |
