Dougie Vipond chases the deer on the Ben Alder Estate in the Highlands for the annual stag rut. Shahbaz Majeed is on the banks of the River Deveron in Aberdeenshire, as the salmon return to their spawning grounds.

Also in Aberdeenshire, Rosie Morton helps harvest apples destined to become champagne-style cider, while in Edinburgh, Arlene Stuart goes on a subterranean fungi foray in a disused bunker
