Wild Provence

%26#39;Wild Provence%26#39;, a half hour programme about wild-life, was on TV at the weekend and is available on BBCi (for UK users anyway) for another 5 days bbc.co.uk/iplayer/page/item/b0079043.shtml



%26quot;An escapist portrait of the unexpectedly wild side of Provence. Among the fauna are chamois, griffon vultures, wild black bulls and tens of thousands of pink flamingos.%26quot;



I can guess where they filmed the bulls and flamingoes, but I%26#39;d love to know where some of the others can be seen.

I videoed it but unfortunately I had forgotten to move the clock on my VCR forward an hour. And I haven%26#39;t got BBCi. Was it good?

I have a feeling it was a repeat - I am sure I had seen some of the chamois footage before.





Believe it or not, the moutain stuff (chamois, vulture) were filmed in the mountains. :¬) tricky, these nature types

Ha, my mother would tell you to get back in the knife box for comments like that.



We%26#39;re heading back to Provence for a week en route elsewhere, and I was wondering if there were any particular locations to see the mountain species .... apart from taking a generally uphill direction, that is ;-)



Chantal, you should get the iplayer to open if you just click the link in my post, assuming you use a recommended browser (IE or Firefox apparently), and the Wizard is right that it%26#39;s been repeated on different channels several times over the past couple of years - it%26#39;s still good though.
