A series of wild-life programmes.
Introduced by Peter Scott.

During the spring of last year Field-Marshal Viscount Alanbrooke took part in an expedition to the Coto Donana in southern Spain, where he filmed for the first time one of Europe's rarest and most magnificent birds - the Spanish Imperial Eagle.
Tonight, in the second of two programmes, Peter Scott invites Lord Alanbrooke and Guy Mountfort, the leader, to comment on the results of the expedition and on the films they made.
