The programme with the latest news and information on wildlife. with Su Ingle and Mike Jordan. Today the Post Office issues its set of beautiful butterfly stamps and Wildtrack shows you how to transform your own back garden into a haven for butterflies. As Su describes, it's mostly to do with what flowers you plant and what colour they are.
Mike joins our four expert bird-watchers, including Bill Oddie, in a mad dash around the country by fast car and aeroplane. The object? To discover how many different kinds of birds can be seen in just one day.

A Licence to Breed Money
Ask any stockbroker which technologies are the hottest investments today and he'll probably say two words: chips and bugs. For just as the 70s created the chip millionaires, so the 80s are spawning a new breed of bug millionaires.
' Biotechnology ' has become the new buzzword for speculators, because biology has come out of the laboratory and into the market-place. Biologists are manipulating genes to produce custom-built bacteria ... living factories capable of making some of the most valuable products on earth. The Risk Business looks at the extraordinary growth of new companies at the frontiers of this technology and sees how they are scrambling to buy up the world's top microbiologists.
Yet there is a South Sea Bubble flavour to this speculation. Promises rather than products have raised millions. The science still has to prove its potential. And there is a more fundamental worry; some scientists fear that big business could alter the course of biological research for ever. Reporter Judith Hann

The top events, personalities and stories in sport. Tonight:
Whatever Happened to the Next Fred Perry ?
With British tennis currently facing radical proposals for re-organisation, probably our greatest need is a Wimbledon Men's Champion - the last time Great Britain received such a boost was back in 1936 when Fred Perry won his third consecutive title. Gerald Williams examines the problems facing our tennis administrators following the major surgery recommended by last year's government report, and compares the progress of Britain's young players with those of the leading European nations, Czechoslovakia, France and Sweden who have produced five-times winner of Wimbledon Bjorn Borg ,
