The Life of Birds
The Mastery of Flight (1x2)
Air date: Oct 28, 1998
The second programme deals with the mechanics of flight. Getting into the air is by far the most exhausting of a bird's activities, and Attenborough observes shearwaters in Japan that have taken to climbing trees to give them a good jumping-off point.
