A series of wild-life programmes.
Introduced by Peter Scott.
The avocet, with its slender up-curved bill and snowy-white plumage patterned with black, is the most easily recognised of our British wading birds.
About a hundred years ago the avocet forsook its breeding grounds on our shores and for years this elegant wader could only be seen as a rare visitor.
The story of its mysterious return as a British breeding bird, under cover of top-secret protection measures, is told by Peter Scott and Philip Brown, Secretary of the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds.
