Nature’s grand spring spectacle continues on BBC Two’s “Springwatch.” As the season progresses, the team prepares for fledgewatch, that nail-biting period when chicks test their wings and venture out of the nest. In this Thursday’s episode, Chris Packham and Michaela Strachan, broadcasting from the National Trust’s Longshaw Estate in the Peak District, offer their expert predictions on who’s ready to take the plunge. Viewers are in for a catch-up with the various cams already deployed.
Meanwhile, Iolo Williams concludes the first leg of his Northern Irish journey in Belfast, hopefully with more tales of local wildlife. And back in more familiar territory, “Springwatch Street” provides a peek into the goings-on in ordinary gardens across the UK. From fledglings finding their wings to urban foxes causing mischief, the series continues to explore the wild side of Britain.
“Springwatch” airs Thursday, 29 May at 8:00 PM BST on BBC Two.
