Darwin, dance and Bird Psychology

Have just been listening to Midweek on BBC Radio 4, where one of the guests is Nicky Clayton, Professor of Comparative Cognition at Cambridge University and "an expert in bird behaviour. She is also passionate about dance and now combines these two strands as the Rambert Dance Company's first 'Scientist in Residence'. She is working with the Rambert on a new production, "Seven for a Secret, Never to be Told" and will be at this year's Hay Festival."
Her previous work with the company was  Comedy of Change which celebrated Charles Darwin's 200th aniversary.
