In November 2005, the iconic figure of Sir David Attenborough returned to our television screens to present yet another ground-breaking natural history series.
‘Life in the Undergrowth’ is a dazzling tour through the world of the land-living invertebrates — insects, bugs, spiders and worms. As we have come to expect from previous Life series, it is a visual treat. Miniature cameras no larger than a seed allow us to view the world from the perspective of the creatures being observed.
Furthermore, the sensitivity of the new equipment avoids the problem of having to drench the tiny animals with so much light that they are ‘fried’ or behave unnaturally.
