13/40. We broadcast some feedback from some of you using ispot in this programme. Ispot is the Open University website where you can tap into the communal expertise of fellow users and identify wildlife you don't know the name of. A simple photograph taken by you or even a written description of what you have seen uploaded onto the site often gets responses within minutes. But how does giving something a name help? We find out from you.

We have part two of our Long-Billed and White-Backed Vulture story from India. Gillian Rice discovers these species have together declined by 99.9% in India. 40+ million to a few thousand in 15 years. In part two we discover how the RSPB and the Bombay Natural History Society are planning to rescue the populations and what the implications are on human health in an India with vultures on the brink of extinction.

And we'll be back in northern Scotland with Bob Swann and his Fulmars, Guillemots and Kittiwakes he's keeping an eye on for us. The news might be good news for the Kittiwakes.

And our news hound Kelvin Boot will be on the show with wildlife stories making the news from around the world.
