In this episode, travel back in time with David Attenborough to discover the reptiles who took a leap of faith into the sky. Meet a Draco lizard as it glides through the canopies of the 21st century. This reptile reveals the evolutionary foundations of flight that preceded the prehistoric pterosaurs. Encounter the ancient, tree-dwelling Dimorphodon, one of the first known pterosaurs to command the skies in its hunt for insects. Let Quetzalcoatlus, the giant pterosaur, dwarf you, with its vast 20ft wingspan - equivalent to a small jet - Finally, meet the earliest-known feathered dinosaur to exist: Archeopteryx. A pivotal character in this evolutionary journey, it paved the way for the feathered victory in the skies.

In this episode, join David Attenborough to discover how birds took to the skies in different ways. Start on the ground as young pheasant chicks make their first forays into the air. Witness the sophisticated hummingbird as it hovers and hums, feeds and fights. Precise with its movement and light in the air, some species beat their wings up to 80 times per second! Then, admire the silent predator harboured by the night skies: the owl is calm and calculated as it hunts a field mouse, its grace matched only by its deadliness.
