Iolo Williams explores the wildlife of Anglesey. Wales' largest island is renowned for its coastal beauty, but it also has stunning fenland and rich surrounding sea full of terrific wildlife. In this episode, Iolo heads out to sea to look for Risso's dolphins, where underwater, an artificial reef has formed from an old shipwreck. The presenter finds roosting bats at an old priory, plus dragonflies and beautiful rare plants on Anglesey's fens. On the Alaw estuary, Iolo gets a rare sight of a merlin - Britain's smallest bird of prey as well as Brent geese, which have flown all the way from Canada to overwinter on Anglesey
