Sea horses are intriguing wee creatures but they are also very difficult to breed in captivity. Euan finds out whether efforts at Macduff Aquarium have been successful.
Mark finds out that Argaty Farm near Doune has more to see than the fantastic red kites it has become famous for. He heads to a new woodland hide to see if he can spot any of the new residents.
