Note: Originally published: 2016 Have you ever wondered what 'our' birds get up to when they're not pinching our peanuts, pilfering our pyracantha berries or nesting under the eaves of our homes? 'The One Show's' natural history star, Mike Dilger, tells us the answers. This almanac tells the very different personal and annual stories of 12 well-known birds we deign to call 'British'.

Note: For most of 2020, Mike Dilger's normal day-job of travelling to the four corners of the British Isles to film wildlife for The One Show all but disappeared, limiting his daily wildlife fixes to those short walks to and from home with son and dog. With his wings clipped, he couldn't shake the feeling he was missing out and even felt he was suffering from some form of 'nature deficit disorder'. But as spring slowly turned to summer, the simple pleasure of getting to know the wild plants on his own local patch turned his daily exercise from being somewhat tedious to utterly enthralling.

Note: After the best part of 40 years spent living under someone else's roof, Mike Dilger has at last bought a house - and with it, a (potentially) glorious garden. In 'My Garden and Other Animals', we follow Mike and his partner Christina as they turn their ramshackle property into a rich haven for wildlife.
