Hands on Nature  Hands
on Nature returns for a repeat series on 大象传媒 TWO the week of Monday 12 February
and Monday 19 February.
All programmes will be broadcast at 1.45pm on 大象传媒
Two on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Shot in beautiful locations
around the country, the series offers tips on where to go to spot some of the
most rare and most interesting animals, birds, trees and flowers, how to identify
them, and how species survive and thrive in different habitats. Providing
the backdrop are some spectacular landscapes, across mountain, seaside, lake and
forest – and the very best of what the UK countryside has to offer.
The programme's primary aim is to encourage viewers to get out, explore
and discover nature for themselves. Presenter Chris Packham and
his team of three experts – earth scientist Janet Sumner, zoologist Sanjida
O'Connell and botanist Mike Dilger - go swimming with seals off the Isles of Scilly,
get up close and personal with pine martens in Scotland, and go in search of a
wide variety of wildlife including dragonflies, crayfish, puffins, barn owls,
badgers, butterflies and bats. During the course of the series,
they visit nature hot spots as diverse as the Cairngorms, the island of Skomer
off the Welsh coast, Pocklington Canal in the Yorkshire Wolds, the New Forest,
Brecon Beacons, the Lake District and Somerset Levels. The programme
is a 'user's guide' to what's in your own back yard and provides a practical guide
to what you can do, see and learn. Feedback If

Real
Media
What do I need to hear
AV clips
In order to hear sound or view a video clip on our site you will
need to have a version of the RealPlayer. This is plug-in application can be downloaded
from . You should download
the latest free Basic Beta 8 player as this is suitable for playing our Audio
and Video content. The links to the free player can be found in the middle of
the Real.com page. You can find further details on our site.
Why
can't I use my Windows Media Player
When the 大象传媒 began publishing audio
and video content Real Media was the most secure form of streaming. Due to copyright
issues related to our content we found this to be the most suitable platform and,
at the time, Microsoft supported this. Unfortunately they withdrew their support
for Real Media and as a consequence many of the later versions of the Windows
Players will not play our clips. This may change in the future. You will find
that many of the World Service clips are also streamed for the Windows Player.
I
keep getting 'No DNS entry'
It is more than likely that your RealPlayer
is set up incorrectly. Please check the connection and proxy settings in preferences
(you will find these in the view drop down menu). You will need to select the
setting appropriate for your connection to the internet. If you are behind a firewall
(i.e. part of an office network) then you will need to connect to the clips via
a proxy server. We would advise that you contact you IT department for further
details.
