Thanks loads Tim. Good thought. It's got our chalk grassland mega-bird up-front...the Great Bustard !!...plus Stonechat...and most of the background sound-track is chalk grassland birds - Skylarks, Meadow Pips, Yellowhammer, Corn Buntings, lovely Rooks et al. We couldn't use Stone Curlews cos did that in our first film. Plus, birds get a big deal of attention already...but grasses, snails, mosses, even most bees and beetles get zilch...and it is that 'fairy fauna' and flora that chalk grassland is all about...the 'miniature' thing...
Excellent. So informative. Over 30 species of flowers found in just one square metre of chalk grassland!
A lovely lyrical song.
Really interesting, thanks for uploading :)
Superb. Many thanks for putting this together
Brilliant stuff Dave.This should be required viewing on the curriculum of all local secondary schools (and beyond.)
Now that really would be summat!!!...Thanks Andy
Really enjoyed this - thank you! Any plans for a Part II that includes birds and mammals?
