description About

The final Winterwatch of this series looks at the season as a whole and what it means to us all to celebrate that winter magic. Chris Packham will be live in the New Forest, giving us a final look at the animals we’ve been witnessing for the last couple of weeks. Iolo Williams is looking at oyster catchers and peregrines, Gillian Burke is hoping to see the owls at RSPB Old Moor, and Michaela Strachan is looking at Scotland’s most iconic bird – the golden eagle. In Megan McCubbin’s final film about animals that are often unloved, she promotes slugs, arguing they are not just garden destroyers, but vital to the ecosystem as a whole. We’re also on the hunt for another of our iconic birds of prey as Iolo discovers the amazing success story of red kites in Wales.
