Natural World: Norfolk Broads: The Fall And Rise Of A Great Swamp

Series 23, episode 2

Documentary about the Norfolk Broads, one of the last fragments of a vast swamp where ancient Britons hunted wildfowl and fished for perch and giant pike. Over the centuries most of the marsh and its wildlife were destroyed but the swamp is now recovering, and spectacular birds like avocets, marsh harriers, and cranes are back.
