David Attenborough tells the story of the winged insects that were the first creatures to take to the air. Ultra-slow-motion cameras reveal incredible flight skills, such as dragonflies catching their prey and bluebottles flying upside down. From rare cascade damselflies to hovering hawkmoths, insects use these amazing powers of flight to find new territories, mates and food.
