Marrying Peter Scott in Iceland in 1951 while on a trip with him to find the breeding grounds of the pink-footed goose, Philippa Scott (who became Lady Scott when he was knighted in 1973, but was known to friends simply as Phil), played a crucial role with him in the establishment of the Severn Wildfowl Trust at Slimbridge, Gloucestershire, these days the Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust (WWT).
