A wildlife program is being recorded at Fishleigh estate near Hatherleigh in west Devon for a forthcoming TV series. The program makers do not know what wildlife will be staring in the show as at this stage no performers are pre booked.

Springwatch presenter Bill Oddie is in Devon again this spring, for the fourth series of the show. He tells us that you just can't make any plans, when working with animals.

The fourth Springwatch series hits the BBC TV screens at the end of May 2007. Once again, presenters Bill Oddie and Kate Humble will be broadcasting the show live from the barns at Fishleigh estate near Hatherleigh in west Devon.

And, once again, the Springwatch team will be keeping their fingers crossed that the animals 'co-operate.'

Cameras are set up at locations around Fishleigh estate's organic farm, and tiny cameras are installed inside bird nest boxes.

But not even Bill knows what will happen during the three weeks the show is on air.

Ahead of the series, he told BBC Radio Devon: "You don't really know until you do it because all the best things, you don't really plan.
