The restoration of forest land in the British Isles helps revive the goshawk.

The British Isles are restoring their great forests, and with them the largest of the world's true hawks the goshawk. Extinct in England for a 100 years, this short-winged bird of prey is the top predator in its environment, but it still needs protection from man. This secrecy surrounding the reintroduction of these birds meant that the location of the 2-year-long film was classified information
