I do not like insets though I do take interest in observing them. The price from the seller is good and the DVD come in speed are already some of the pluses before I even watched the DVD. Based on the review from various sources, I bought the DVD. Right in the beginning of it, I already find it fascinating in the sense that there are so many little insects in our garden that we are not even noticing their existence and beauty. I like the DVD very much and recommend the view to get this one. If you are a person who always want to grow and learn, then you will enjoy not only watching the DVD but also sharing the knowledge with your family and friends. | |

| Amazing bugs | |

I'm very pleased. Some scenes were amazing. Very educational for young or old. The only down-side was it was a bit slow from time to time but that is hardly a big problem. I highly recommend it to anyone who has an interest in insects. | |

I loved it as did my son. Close up look as some creatures you rarely if ever see up close. Helped me understand another part of our world. The cinematographers did a fantastic job. | |

| Another must-see series from Attenborough / BBC | |

This 2006 nature series is another great accomplishment from Attenborough and the BBC. His team uses medical fiber-optic camera lenses to get right down to ground level, showing the slugs and ants and springtails at a perspective and level of detail which we've never been able to see before. Episode 1 covers the "less-evolved" land invertebrates, i.e. slugs, millipedes/centipedes, etc. Episode 2 looks at airborne insects, using high-speed cameras to view hoverflies and bluebottles. Episode 3 is mostly focused on spiders and their amazing use of silk - some very beautiful scenes here. Episode 4 is about reproduction, and Episode 5 covers the social insects - ants, termites, bees and wasps. My only complaint - the series was far too short, and the presentation felt less organized than in his other, longer series. But all in all, this DVD set is well worth your money. | |
