Starting today, Ecotalk are giving you a front row seat to watch the beautiful birds feeding, fluttering and squabbling in Chris Packham’s garden in the New Forest.

Chris is Ecotalk’s Chief Ecologist and he’s handing out this incredible backstage pass as part of his mission to keep us all connected to nature.

It’s a unique opportunity to catch colourful tits, robins, magpies, woodpeckers and many more of your favourite birds causing a spot of feathered chaos, on your phone or screen from 9am - 4pm GMT.

Rewilding Britain one phone at a time

Powered by Ecotricity’s green energy, Ecotalk is the world’s first mobile network to use its profits to restore nature. Guided by Chris Packham’s commitment to a greener Britain, everyone who switches to Ecotalk is helping wildlife thrive by supporting the landscapes that sustain it.

All Ecotalk’s profits from customer bills go straight into rewilding land owned and managed by The Green Britain Foundation. At Bowyers Wood in East Sussex, 250 acres of semi-ancient woodland are being brought back to life. Soils are being nourished, wetlands are returning and beavers are on the way.

Over in Devon, the Downicary project is transforming overgrazed land into a haven for wildlife. Wetland trees are being planted, otters and wading birds are returning, rare butterflies are flourishing and the beavers introduced here are thriving.

More chances to watch nature in action

The launch of the live video feed from Chris Packham’s garden is just the latest part of Ecotalk’s mission to keep Britain connected to nature.

You can watch monthly updates on the Ecotalk NatureCams, showcasing the birds, badgers, squirrels, deer and beavers that are making their homes in the rewilded sites.

Across the UK, this rewilding work is giving nature a real chance to bounce back, all made possible by Ecotalk customers.
