Animal Senses

From the earliest primitive life forms to sophisticated animals like mammals, primates and birds, animals have evolved powerful senses to perceive their environment. These developed senses can turn mechanical waves, airborne particles, and photons into information that helps animals find food, shelter, mates, and communicate with each other. ANIMAL SENSES traces the evolutionary history of those senses.

The Orchard

THE ORCHARD follows life in an apple orchard from spring to the autumn harvest season. Each month from May to September is an act in this dramatic story filled with love, loss, battles of nature, amazing characters, and a bountiful payoff. May is cultivation and blossom.
