Water has a way of calming us “it just does something to us” says Nadeem Perera...but it can also bring us together. In this episode Megan McCubbin explores the abundant pond life of Cody Dock in East London, which not only attracts the likes of Reed Warblers and Sticklebacks but members of the local community who have all helped transform and shape the area into a rich haven. We also join co-founder and nature activist <a href="https://www.instagram.com/birdnerdeem/">Nadeem Perera</a> next to one of his favourite slices of nature, right in the heart of Bristol. He tells us how an encounter with a crow near a pond in the heart of his community sparked an interest in birds that would help shape his future and his whole outlook on nature.To face and help solve the climate crisis we need to work together, and community conservation is one of the most important things we can do. Ponds and mini-wetlands, however small and wherever we may live, need to be looked after because the ripple effects can be huge.Featuring: Gino Brignoli and volunteers at <a href="https://codydock.org.uk/">Cody Dock</a>  and Nadeem Perera of <a href="https://www.flocktogether.world/">Flock Together</a>.
