Planet Earth in HD

When people get an HD TV they often start watching nature shows. In part it's because there aren't that many channels and Discovery HD is one of them, but it's also because it looks gorgeous in HD. The Discovery Channel has a new 11 part mini-series called Planet Earth. It took 5 years to make and uses new techiques to capture things never seen before and it's amazing.

Here's a clip of a Bird Of Paradise doing a dance to attract a mate. Just before this they showed him literally cleaning the stage before his show.



You can see more clips here but you really want to watch this in HD.
