I hope this is a suitable topic. Apologies if it is not.

I just wanted to alert everyone to a spectacular Nature program on PBS Sunday night. On MPT, it is being broadcast in high def at 7 p.m. Not sure what time it is being shown in regular format on MPT or on the other PBS stations in this area. If you have high def, it is really amazing.

The name of the episode is Hummingbirds: Magic in the Air. It was directed and produced by Anna Prum, and there will be live chat during the broadcast at 9 p.m. (so I suppose if you want to follow/participate in the live chat, you will need to find a station airing it at 9 p.m.). 

Anna is the wife of ornithologist Rick Prum, the William Robertson Coe Professor of Ornithology, Ecology and Evolutionary Biology,
Peabody Museum of Natural History, winner of a MacArthur Genius award last year, and an incredibly brilliant and nice guy.

There are some great preview videos here:

as well as the link for the live chat.
