This is on BBC1 weekdays at 9.15 am
Covers domesticated pets as well as wildlife....yesterday it showed a man scaling 20ft down a church tower to check the eggs of a peregrine falcon.. He showed how they marked the eggs by firstly numbering them with a perminent marker and then with an invisible marker to make them of no use to egg collectors to protect them.... Unfortunately when they went back 3 weeks later the eggs had all been destroyed by another Bird pecking holes into them with their beaks..
Today it showed London wildlife trust.. which is the centre i use to be a volunteer at, which was great to see

Well worth watching if you are at home..( should be on for a couple of weeks) it can also be seen at different times on Sky.

Is this a new series or a repeat of last years. Last year there was one programme in the second week on a Water Vole release on river Thame that I was involved with. I starred for at lest two tenths of a second. Wasn't actually that impressed with the series to much chopping and changing between articles. The Water Vole release was a great moment in my life.
