Thanks, Paulo, that's great! Simple but charming and informative. We watched a Tales of the Woodland episode at an Enid Blyton Day some years ago but I don't remember whether it was the same one. Was this series based on specific stories by Enid Blyton, I wonder, or merely inspired by various nature tales such as her Uncle Merry/Uncle Nat ones?

It was interesting to see the footage of the caddis grub. I first heard of the caddis grub when I was five and read the story 'Wanted - a Suit of Armour' in Enid Blyton's The Adventures of Pip. It was amazing to think of a grub protecting its soft body by coating itself with grains of sand and tiny bits of wood, plant, etc.
