NATURE:
Birds ("Extraordinary Birds" and "Parrots: Look Who's
Talking")
by PBS NATURE
Birds of a feather flock together with these two
favorite programs from PBS' NATURE, now available together on DVD.
Program 1: Extraordinary Birds - Stunning NATURE photography
takes flight to capture the wondrous behavior of the world's most
extraordinary birds. Follow the warlike falcon hunting for prey,
a storm of wild birds who bring a monsoon to an Indian village,
the 5,000-mile commute of a tiny hummingbird, and more! Program
2: Parrots: Look Who's Talking - Co-produced by Thirteen/WNET
and BBC-TV in 1995, this fun, visually rich program profiles a bird
of magnificent color, both in plumage and in personality. Explore
how the illegal bird trade is threatening wild populations, and
take a fresh look at parrot conservation. Adoring owners talk about
their parrots, including one who loves opera, and another who dunks
cookies on demand!
