Autumnwatch Spectacles
Autumnwatch has been out filming some amazing seasonal spectacles across the UK – celebrating the very best of British wildlife.
That distinctive autumn chill is in the air. Leaves on the trees are displaying their amber, auburn and crimson hues and our wildlife is preparing itself for the harsh winter ahead but not before exhibiting some spectacular autumn behaviour. In our hedgerows all kinds of wildlife is emerging to feast on berries that have ripened through the summer months we delve deep into the undergrowth for a better look. In the heathlands of Devon, a female wasp spider is setting her trap, aiming to snare any unlucky insect that crosses her path. In Northern Ireland we meet Michael Prime, a man who listens to fungi by recording their bioelectrical signals. At RSPB Snettisham, one of Britain’s most dramatic and exciting spectacles is taking place – we’re there to witness the aerial show of hundreds and thousands of wading birds as they put on an incredible, swarming show. And Michaela Strachan is in Norfolk as some of our favourite wading birds are ringed as part of an exciting conservation project.
