Between Finland and Sweden

Between Finland and Sweden

The Baltic Sea is the youngest ocean in the world and first evolved after the last Ice Age. We think we know everything about it, yet still it has many surprises in store. Wind and waves still shape the shores of the Baltic Sea to this day. The third episode takes us to the Bay of Bothnia. More than double the size of the Netherlands, it is the most unknown region of the Baltic Sea. In the winter, the Baltic Sea freezes over at a length of 300 kilometres. In this 1-metre-thick ice tank, the third species of seal - alongside the grey seal and common seal - copes well with the Baltic Sea. The ringed seal is perfectly adapted to the Arctic winter and carves out breathing holes into the ice. More than 10,000 of the animals still live between Sweden and Finland. The Bay of Bothnia only has a salt content of just 1%, which is why it freezes quicker than other regions of the Baltic Sea. Many rivers disembogue here and “sweeten” the sea. The Tornio is the longest natural river in Europe. It forms the border between Sweden and Finland. Even when frost is severe, the Kukkolaforsen rapids in Sweden never freeze over, otters go hunting here. When it gets dark in the winter, solar winds conjure colourful light effects in the Baltic Sea sky. The Aurora Borealis can be seen in the northern regions of the Baltic Sea as of mid-October. The coast of Lapland is also the home of the reindeer. The Sami's, reindeer breeders, bring their herds in winter to the Baltic Sea, as the snow is not as deep here as it is further inland and the animals have better access to lichens and mosses. When Lapland's coast is still frozen, 300 kilometres further south in the Kvarken Archipelago, a special spectacle takes place. Millions of fish head for the coast. Barrier beaches prevent them from reaching the coastal lagoons. They can only spawn where the water is salt-free.

From the Alps to Tuscany

From the Alps to Tuscany

Winter in north Italy: ice and snow rule over the Dolomites for months on end – only specialists can live up here in the high mountains: like the Ibex, for example. Hardly any other animal can climb so efficiently and scale the steepest slopes so elegantly. Even Ibex, however, descend to lower regions when the ice and snow are lying – the risk of falling is simply too high in winter. When an animal does succumb to the conditions, the Golden Eagle takes advantage. The ‘King of the Skies' becomes a scavenger in winter, when he can't catch prey himself - and he has to share, whether he likes it or not, as ravens and crows are quick to the scene of death. As soon as spring arrives, huge amounts of melt water plummet down from the Dolomites into the valley, feeding streams and rivers across north Italy – including the Po. At the Adriatic coast, Italy's longest river joins the Mediterranean and forms a vast delta. In the 1980's, salt-works were in operation here today however the area is a paradise for birds. The protected delta magically attracts rare water birds like the Purple Heron, and even Greater Flamingos. South of the Italian Alps sprawls one of the most recognizable cultural landscapes on earth: Tuscany. A mild climate, olive groves, vineyards and small woods shape this region – and whoever looks a little closer can also discover Tuscany's wild side. At the top of an old oak tree, two Stag Beetles clash for the favours of a lady and on a blooming meadow, a tortoise munches on some fresh flowers - totally at peace.

Wild Hungary

Wild Hungary

"Wild Hungary - A Water Wonderland" is a wildlife documentary about a white-tailed eagle family, a young otter and a giant catfish that share the wetlands of this country in Central Europe. Hungary lies in the bottom of the huge Pannonian Basin encircled by the peaks of the Alps and the Carpathians. Countless rivers and streams run from the mountains into the heart of the basin like the Danube or the Tisza and the countryside is densely scattered with thousands of lakes as well. In such a water paradise it's not surprising that wildlife is flourishing, often quite close to human settlements or well-known tourist destinations like the Lake Balaton or the Hungarian Puszta. "Wild Hungary" is also the story of a fisherman and a herdsman for whom the rhythm of the river and the moving of the water makes the yearly calendar. "Wild Hungary" offers a view behind the clichés that lives about this country. And there are much more to taste than the famous goulash soup.
