I agree. Maybe they're just very restricted at the moment on where and when they can film so they haven't got lots of input from camera people dotted around the country. Starling-cam was really interesting though.

Megs is extremely good. She should be a decent person for the younger audience to connect with and she explains things very well without as many 'ers and ums' as Gillian (although she's a lot better than she used to be). She's been an excellent replacement for Michaela Strachen so I hope the keep her on when things back back to a bit more normal.

We are probably just spoilt with Spring Watch and Autumn Watch when more is going on. Yes I did enjoy the Starling Cam.

Yes the starling cam was excellent. I did also like the 90 second videos as well. But apart from that......

Bit of a slow start, but that is not unusual. Hopefully will be more action as it progresses.

Yep not bad so far. Hopefully the camera action will pick up.

Yes, a slow start. Think most viewers would like to see more of the wildlife than presenters.

Yes, there are lots of cameras on various wildlife, but last night hardly showed any of it.
