Chris Packham and stepdaughter Megan McCubbin continue their wildlife-watching road trip round Britain, this time exploring the rugged Cairngorms in Scotland.\n\nChris and Meg explore the ancient Caledonian woodlands of Abernethy National Nature Reserve, where Chris is on a mission to show Meg a very rare flower. Deep in the forest they eventually find what Chris was looking for: the twinflower.\n\nThe next day, Chris and Meg head to the tranquillity of Loch Insh in search of one of our most impressive birds of prey – the osprey. Once hunted to extinction in Scotland, these fish-eating raptors are now successfully breeding in the highlands again.\n\nTheir next stop is another loch – the beautiful Loch an Eilein with its island castle - where Chris recounts to Meg a story from his youth, complete with his diary entry from the time. Rounding off their second day, the pair head to a wildlife hide in Strathspey in the hope of spotting an elusive mammal - the pine marten - but they find badgers instead.\n\nLastly, Meg has something a bit more energetic planned: a deer-watching trip up a Cairngorms mountain.
