She works on natural history documentaries for television, including the multi-award-winning 'Secret Life of the Shannon' and 'On a River in Ireland', 'Wild Cities' and 'Wild Ireland'.

Juanita also edits Biodiversity Ireland, the magazine of the National Biodiversity Data Centre. Her latest job involves working with the National Biodiversity Data Centre, on a project called the All-Ireland Pollinator Plan - conserving bees, bumblebees and the wildflowers, hedgerows they depend on. Dubliner Barry Reynolds is a character designer/concept/visual development artist and illustrator who has worked on the Oscar-nominated, animated movie The Secret of Kells, on Aardman and Sony Pictures Animation's Arthur Christmas, and on Irish language graphic novels, An Tain and Deirdre agus Mic Uisnigh, where his artwork helped these Irish legends to a new readership. As a child, Barry saw The Jungle Book and announced then that he intended to be an artist, and he has realised that dream, apart from a few brief flirtations with wanting to be an astronaut, a dinosaur hunter and a zoologist ... the last of which came in handy when working on The Great Big Book of Irish Wildlife.
