Tiere vor der Kamera: Wir suchen den Superstar

Schillernde Gestalten und schräge Vögel, Schmusesänger, Rapper und eine Diva hatten Ernst Arendt und Hans Schweiger vor Mikrofon und Kamera. Sie waren zwischen Gibraltar und Nordkap auf Castingtour und filmten rund 30 Stars aus der Vogelwelt. Darunter so namenhafte Interpreten wie Zaunkönig, Lerche, Bienenfresser, Buchfink, Amsel, Star und Kuckuck. Das Highlight ist der nächtliche Gesang der Nachtigal. Ein amüsanter Einblick in das Showbusiness der Natur.
