Description
In this second of five episodes, Welsh host and wildlife expert Iolo Williams investigates the breeding and nesting behavior of birds. We watch great crested grebes make a spectacular courtship display at a reservoir near Pontypool; hen harriers perform an impressive sky dance in the dramatic Cambrian Mountains; and nuthatches use mud-like cement to prepare a nest in a woodland near Harlech. Williams then explores why long-tailed tits near Newtown are exceptional nest builders. And on the Lleyn Peninsula near Trefor, he looks at why one colony of shags nests earlier than any others in Wales. In Pembrokeshire, he finds out where house martins nested before they used buildings. Williams also uncovers a variety of other nesting scenes, from little ringed plovers on shingle banks along the Towy River to puffins underground on Skomer Island.
