Anyone watch Life in the Undergrowth last night on ABC ? Been eagerly waiting for it and thoroughly enjoyed it like all of Sir David Attenborough's nature docos . What a powerful presenter the man is , just awesome :)

I missed it, had a bit of it on in the background but that time of night is "happy hour" at my house, feeding, bathing and bedding 3 kids!

Utterly awesome show, as all of Attenborough's shows are. How on earth do those cameras have some minute critter in perfect focus as well as Attenborough who is quite some distance away? And no distortion?? The depth of field is HUGE!

My favourite was the centipede? that squirts glue to hold its prey. The springtails were cute doing their backflips (maybe we should rename them politicians?) and slug sex beats the karma sutra hands down!!

:confuse3: What about that giant species of centipede that prey on bats in South America and the way scorpions glow when under UV light :)
