The synopsis reads: "Theirs is no cosy existence – even in these beautiful and seemingly genteel surroundings the rules of the wild still operate.
"From pine martens in the Western Highlands to dormice in South Wales, swallows in the Lake District to otters in Oxfordshire and blue tits in Bristol, the series reveals not just a rich and surprising diversity of life but also how each species finds its own way to live alongside us.
"You’ll never look at your garden in the same way again."
