Explorer and travel writer Hugh Thomson presents five stories of birds and the emotions they stir in people.

Kim Durbin tells the tale of a tame blackbird that came so close she saw a human connection in it, gull researcher Peter Rock describes an encounter with lesser black-backed gulls, John Clifton of RSPB Dearne Valley Old Moor in Barnsley has high hopes that bee-eaters will nest more and more in the UK, Paul Brook considers the luck involved in seeing wildlife and Springwatch cameraman Nigel Bean remembers finding a water rail that came to be a star of the series.
