I am an insect migration scientist from North Wales. I have loved insects for as long as I can remember. I completed my PhD at the university of Exeter, studying the types and numbers of insects migrating in Europe. I now work for the Swiss Ornithological Institute as a post-doc. My current work includes using radars to monitor migration, as well as ground based techniques.

These insects are incredible animals, flying thousands of km each year in their trillions, I hope you will one day love them as much as I do.
