11:30am - Environews
Entomologist and curator of the Central Otago Museum in Alexandra, Brian Patrick is utterly passionate about the special ecology of Central Otago. He walks us through a seemingly dead salt-pan and describes how Central Otago is in fact a biodiversity hotspot, with more species per square metre than forest parks.

Click here to view Graeme's photo gallery of the salt-pan walk.

We also have a copy of his gorgeous book, “Wild Central” to give away to one lucky listener.

12:30pm - Science report with Vicky Hyde
