Re: ***** Springwatch *****

Remember that a lot of the people who watch this prog are children - the next generation of ecologists, whose interest we have to catch - and for them this might be the first time they've seen the blue tits or the Badgers.

Re: ***** Springwatch *****

I always try and catch Springwatch when it's on. They try and strike a balance between the more common animals that could visit your garden (Tits, foxes, Badgers) and the uncommon. Scottish Wildcats? Yes please.

Got to agree with you there. I googled her (if you know what I mean) and found she was a model and had appeared in a Bond movie.

Springwatch is broadcast during the summer every year, once all the film footage has been shot and edited and stories collated and collected over the spring (bar the live boxcam footage etc), they explain this every year at the start of the series and will probably do so again on monday.

Just got my 'Mini Oddie' downloaded all ready to keep me updated of all the Springwatch news, but even if not I just like to see him diving in and out of the shrubbery at my command
