Megan McCubbin joined the Watches<\/em> (Springwatch<\/a><\/em>, Autumnwatch<\/em> and Winterwat<\/em>ch<\/a>) team during the lockdown of 2020, co-presenting with her step-father Chris Packham<\/a> from their home in the New Forest. They had first appeared together on social media in their Self-Isolating Bird Club, a birdwatching community show they launched in March 2021 as a way to focus on nature during lockdown.<\/p>\n

They were then seen together in the BBC show Chris and Meg\u2019s Wild Summer<\/a><\/em>, where the pair travelled the UK in an electric campervan looking for the nation\u2019s wildlife to enjoy, photograph and discuss.<\/p>\n
