This week Ann Jones, host of Catalyst special The Secret Lives of Our Urban Birds, is taking over the What to Watch newsletter to tell us all about the episode. She's also giving us her top picks of what to watch on ABC iview. "Sometimes, when you watch nature docos - all the wildlife is somewhere else, far away - in the amazon or Antarctica. But in reality, in Australia, we are incredibly lucky to live with wildlife right at our doors (and sometimes in our roof!).Once you get your eye and ear in, you'll find there are hundreds of species of birds around you - even if you live right in the city. This Catalyst episode should have plenty of 'ah-ha' moments and also the realisation that you don't have to travel very far at all to see some of the most fascinating and complex of animal behaviours on the planet. I hope you enjoy the episode. Keep reading to find more of my favourite shows on ABC iview." - Ann Jones |
