No matter how crummy the day has been, popping on something with the soothing tones of Sir David Attenborough has a way of calming the nerves.

His latest docuseries, Netflix’s Life in Color with David Attenborough, is a three-parter that promises us the opportunity to “experience a world that has long been hidden from our eyes”.

Sure, but what does that actually mean?

Well, according to Nerdist, we’re in for a visual treat:

David Attenborough travels the world from the rainforests of Costa Rica to the snowy Scottish Highlands to reveal the extraordinary and never-before-seen ways animals use color.

Using revolutionary camera technology created specifically for this series, viewers will experience how colors invisible to the human eye play a vital role in animal interactions.

From the seemingly magical ultraviolet signals on a butterfly’s wings to the surprising yet crucial purpose behind a Bengal tiger’s stripes, a hidden world of color is waiting to be discovered.

Yes.

Sign me up.

Here’s the trailer:

This one hits Netflix on Earth Day, which is April 22.

The three episodes are titled ‘Seeing in Color’, ‘Hiding in Color’, and ‘Chasing Color’.

I’d like to go on the record and say there’s a very good chance I binge all three in a single sitting.
