Martin Kitching

Born in East Yorkshire, but having now spent more than half of his life north of the Tyne, Martin is a wildlife, photography and astronomy guide.

For the last 12 years he’s coordinated the North East Cetacean Project, mapping cetacean and seabird abundance and distribution off the Northumberland coast, to inform marine protected area decision-making processes, and he was the main cetacean species account author for Mammals, Amphibians and Reptiles of the North East. He’s a past author, and editor, of Birds in Northumbria, who’s had a fascination with everything in the natural world around him since a very young age.
