Birds of Paradise (2010)

Living in the depths of the New Guinean Rainforest are birds of unimaginable colour and beauty. When Europeans first saw the plumes of these fabulous creatures they believed they must be from heaven and called them Birds of Paradise. David Attenborough introduces a team of New Guinean naturalists as they embark on a gruelling expedition to try and film ten birds of paradise deep in the heart of the rainforest.

Covering the domestic cat in great detail, The Ultimate Guide: House Cats is both informative and humourous. Illustrated in detail are how man and cats have become companions over the last 4,000 years and how the cat has never really been domesticated even though we think they’ve been. The familiar Ultimate Guide techniques are used to demonstrate why they can see in the dark, why they can jump so high and why they land on their feet. Also, explore a house with a 150 foot cat path that runs through the entire house, hanging from the ceiling.
