An Unexpected Wilderness
Away from the tame landscape of suburban Essex, with its car parks and roads, Natural World rediscovers the rich, elemental and little appreciated wildernesses of this English county. An Unexpected Wilderness reveals the misconceptions that exist about rural England, bringing reassuring and surprising news about the state of the landscapes and their inhabitants. Most of all, this film encourages the protection of the remaining wild places, to show how man and nature can comfortably co-exist and for us all to experience the 'wilderness' while it is still possible.

They have a near perfect teardrop shape to them, must be insanely aerodynamic.

its actually just their feathers that make them look aerodynamic, without the feathers they look like a tiny chicken with long legs and wings.

@@Stoop_Kidd that's true, but remember that feathers are part of their bodies as well. Almost like saying dogs look weird without fur (true, but hopefully almost never applicable)

Not really, their faces are disk shaped to be able to better absorb soundwaves to determine the acoustic location of prey at night. A better example of aerodynamics would intuitively be the fastest bird in the world - the peregrine falcon.

Yeah they truly are,also when they showed the barn owl flying in the air,was it just me or for a moment you thought that the sound was turned off but quickly remembered that owls fly very very silently?

For those who are searching for the background Piano piece, it's Craig Armstrong - Gentle Piece. Thanks.
What a beautiful and majestic animal.
Just the act of watching it fly. How you can visibly see its body move upward as it slowly flaps its wings is hypnotic.
Barn owls are such breathtakingly beautiful creatures! 😍
I came face to face with one in broad daylight. He was standing in tall grass and kept peeping up over the top of it to see where I was. Owls are beautiful creatures.
In my opinion the most beautiful execution of flight among other birds. So calm and controlled ❤️
How lucky I am to share life with a being like this.
This guy is a damn poet
Watching them fly is soo satisfying and soothing.
Like an angel in the forest of the moon light 🌲🌲🌲🌌🌙
I'm here for this gentle owl poetry
I love to hearing Owl in the night if I was in bed it so relaxing to listen Owl in the night.

Owl is my now
They’re such stunning animals, truly beautiful, but they make such a terrifying noise
The most beautiful owl i have ever seen in my life
My favorite of all birds. Graceful, elegant and beautiful. A bird of wonders. Imagination. And a flight as movement made poetry.
Intelligent flight... If only we could fly and fly so effortlessly.
So reminded me of a cherished owl I knew, BARNEY...Miss you wherever you are..
It looks like an angel...
wow you put that thing in a barn and i bet it feels right at home
Ive seen many owl species in person and all of them have one trait in common. When they flap their wings, they make literally no sound
The shots, music and poetic narration made this a beautiful watch, and very moving. Thank you
it's the Deftones owl :D

beautiful birds but the sound of these at night sends chills down the spine, if you don't recognize the sound especially
The grace and beauty of the nature
I didn't knew owl's had really long wing but when the owl is flying it's so satisfying to watch it
Last night I managed to catch 5 minutes of a barn owl hunting in daytime, amazing! It was a successful hunt!
I love Barn owls :)
THE FACE IS PRETTY EASY TO REMEMBER... LIKE CHOPPED OFF APPLE WAHAHAHA
In Malaysia we call this bird as Burung Hantu which in english means Ghost Bird due to its stealthy and nocturnal nature. A lot of small Owl shelter can be found around the paddy field as its function as a natural pest control against rats.
I absolutely love them !
Beautiful bird & flying . 🦉🦉🦉
This could bring me to sleep...

Beautifully narrated. Is this Robert Macfarlane's voice?

very relaxing video and bird.
Is so cute
I know this video is really beautiful and everything but this is essentially the equivalent of eating a midnight snack. *Spirit animal confirmed*
Was so lucky today. I was driving along a country road today when one flew up out of the grass verge and glided about eye level along the side of my car within about 10ft of the vehicle. So annoyed that I couldn’t capture it on video
