Lucy Shepherd and her Indigenous team embark on an unprecedented 50-day expedition to traverse virgin Amazon rainforest. Chapter 1: Lucy and the team enter the dense jungle canopy that will be their home for the next few months. Spirits plummet as one of the team gets seriously injured and has to be evacuated for treatment. Chapter 2: Lucy and the team come face to face with their worst fear - the deadly bushmaster snake - and have to make some split-second life-or-death decisions. They're also attacked by giant wasps and cross rivers infested with black caiman, which makes them wonder if they'll make it out alive.

Watch as birds solve puzzles and challenge our basic notions of intelligence. Call somebody a “bird brain,” and you’re not delivering them a compliment. But as NOVA shows, birds turn out to have advanced problem-solving skills that we usually assume are unique to humans. Watch astonishing tests of avian aptitude: parrots that can plan for the future, jackdaws that can “read” human faces, and crows that can solve multi-step puzzles with tools like pebbles, sticks, and hooks. Could these just be clever tricks based on instinct or triggered by subtle cues from their human handlers? To rule out any doubts, NOVA puts feathered Einsteins through their paces and reveals skills that even three- or four-year-old children have a hard time mastering—such as putting off one reward now to get a bigger one later. From this revolution in thinking about our feathered friends, the conclusion seems irresistible that bird brains see the world in ways that aren’t so different from our own.
