Presenter Hamza Yassin adopted a cautious approach to filming wildlife in the Scottish Highlands for a recent episode. While exploring Loch Affric, his focus was on capturing footage of migrating ospreys. He ensured a discreet distance, over a kilometre from their nest, to protect the birds and their nesting site. This ethical consideration is crucial for wildlife observation and requires special licenses and keen observation of the animals' comfort levels.
