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

The birds of the Highlands are seen in their haunts in the glens and on the hills; beside tiny mountain burns and the fast-flowing waters of the glen streams; by peaceful lochs and in the ancient pine forests.
George Waterston, Scottish Representative of the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds, shows Peter Scott extracts from a special film made by the Society during 1956 and 1957.
(BBC recording)
This programme will be repeated later in Children's Television
