Poet Rob McFarlane transports us into a beautiful birch woodland and captivates us with his lyricism, and we get an insight into the life of one of our most charismatic wading birds, the oystercatcher, as we follow its day from dawn till dusk.

At Wild Ken Hill in Norfolk, Chris Packham and Michaela Strachan discuss some of our most topical wildlife issues. Megan McCubbin visits a marine lab, where she gets a close look at some of the strange and wonderful inverts that use the mudflats at Castle Espie, while Iolo Williams uncovers Mull’s most magical wildlife secrets.
