Springwatch episode 6 2018
In Springwatch episode 6 2018 Chris Packham and Michaela Strachan are live again from the Gloucestershire countryside, where it has been a 'fledge-fest' since Monday night. On Monday, the show ended with high drama as one of the blackbird chicks fledged and was promptly caught and eaten by its neighbour the little owl. So how have the other three chicks fared today?
Down near the river the mandarin ducklings decided it was time to make the jump too - a dramatic 3.5m launch from their treetop home, and throughout the day both the marsh tit and willow warbler chicks left home too. Taking a breath from the action, Iolo Williams took a nighttime safari around Sherborne, searching for the three species of owl in they area - the barn, tawny and little owl. He also introduces us to another new camera and yet another Springwatch first - a long-eared owl nest in Wales.
Gillian Burke has moved to another reserve in Yorkshire, the RSPB's St Aidan's, where an old piece of mining machinery is now home to an astonishing array of wildlife. And it is the final installment in the 'Lord of the Wings' epic, where we find out whether the golden eagle or the white-tailed eagle comes out on top, Michaela reports on what the residents of Bristol are doing to fight the tide of plastic in their rivers, and we go deep underwater to see a wonderful submarine garden.
In Springwatch episode 5 2018 Chris Packham and Michaela Strachan are live once again from the Gloucestershire countryside, where overnight events have already thrown up plenty of surprises, including yet more activity from the badger sett.
This programme documents how British wildlife adapt during the changing of the seasons in the United Kingdom. `Springwatch' broadcasts from locations across the nation, using more than 50 cameras - many hidden and operated remotely - to capture the animals' natural behaviour. Presenters Michaela Strachan, Chris Packham and Martin Hughes-Games follow the action from the cameras. The companion website provides additional video content along with pictures, blogs and other features to supplement the programme's content.
