Narrated by Robert Powell
A season of death and decay, or months of magic? When the sun departs and winter days arrive, how does our wildlife cope with the cold? There are many strategies for survival. Some prepare carefully, making food stores, laying up fat, going underground, hibernating. Others adapt, migrate, develop anti-freeze, flee. Some just shiver to survive, but all behave in ways that ensure that life triumphs over death. Award-winning cameraman Hugh Miles explores the still, silent, but stormy beauty of this most challenging season of the year. It is a season to survive.
