In Eagle Island, wildlife photographer Gordon Buchanan spends a year on the Isle of Mull (an island part of the Hebrides chain, off the western coast of Scotland). During that time, he films eagles, otters, sharks, dolphins, and whales that call the island (or the surrounding waters) their home.
This 50-minute TV special from 2005 is mildly interesting, but not spectacular. I purchased this only because Mull holds a special place in my heart- it's an ancestral home- and I visited twice during our UK stint (travel reviews here and here). I wished this special featured more of Mull's landscapes- which are amazing- but the focus here is on the animals. Nice, but not great. The video quality wasn't as good as expected, either, but things have come a long way in 10 years.
