Birds on TV

What a week it has been for BBC4 TV programmes about birds. Here's what's been available:

• Twitchers - A Very British Obsession
• Natural World: Cuckoo
• Why Birds Sing
• Birds Britannia - Garden Birds (part 1 of a 4 part series on BBC4 - Wednesday 9:00pm)
• Johnny Kingdom's Year with the Birds (part 1 of a 3 part series on BBC4 - Wednesday 8:30pm)

I thoroughly enjoyed all the programmes from the totally mad twitchers, through the wonderful David Attenborough's narration about the cuckoo to the slightly eccentric Johnny Kingdom's amazing nest-box full of 18 wrens, which was actually my favourite moment.

If you didn't see them, look out for the repeats or catch them on BBC iPlayer for a while. I'm sure they'll come round again as they usually do on BBC4.  The BBC iPlayer links will eventually become unavailable, but they'll probably remain on the main BBC4 website for longer.

Can't wait for next week's programmes.
