Owls Count

I watched the BBC’s Frozen Planet recently and it reminded me just how good the BBC are at making such programmes. The seven episodes took the viewer on a tour of the polar regions. The team went to great lengths in the filming and the episodes showed some of the methods they used to film in such remote locations.

In the lab we now have OU Frozen Planet Poster on display.

A couple of related links:

• David Attenborough: Going to extremes – DA talks about the Frozen Planet filming and about the polar regions.
• Antarctic’s hidden world revealed – is about BEDMAP, which is the project mapping the rock bed of Antarctica.
