Wildlife in our cities
Florence is a writer, filmmaker and co-founder of birdsong recognition app and citizen science project Warblr. Her work has been featured on the BBC and in the Telegraph, the Pool, Vice and Grazia.
Her first book, Wild City, is a journey into why we should engage with our fellow urban species, what we might see – if we only take the time to look – and how nature is adapting to human-engineered environments in unexpected and ingenious ways.
