These programmes just get better, I am amazed by the footage & dedication it takes to get it. As a 'wildlife photographer' myself I bow down to these guys, they are awesome!
Just for a sec though when I saw the title of your post, Neil, I thought it was referring to hunting on horseback in the UK countryside!! I was going to reply because at the weekend at Newchurch Common I came across a hunt of over 40 horses and about 20 Bloodhounds. It turned out to be the Cheshire Bloodhounds 'Hunt' and they chase cross country runners (who are part of the club lol!!). Every rider was very polite, and this is the way they have always hunted pre and post the ban, so it was quite spectacular to see with no other thoughts of blood sports (unless the cross country runner catches their leg on a fence ).

I second that......brilliant series with some superb camera work. Well worth a look, as expected in any Attenborough programme!

Anyone been watching David Attenboroughs latest?
Some fantastic footage on Sunday of immature female Sparrowhawks hassling feeding Jays
It'll be on catch up and the whole series is worth watching.
