The Ephemeral Forest In the first of six films reflecting the relationship between man and wildlife,
Andrew Cooper explores the natural history of a planted wood. Despite the ravages of storm and fire, the forest still maintains a surprising variety of wildlife. From its towering heights - the nesting site of one of Britain's rarest birds of prey - to the forest floor, the home of giant marauding ants, it's a strange and spectacular world.
