Stingray Naturescape


Stingray Naturescape is a Canadian Category B television channel owned by Stingray Group. The channel primarily broadcasts a rotation of various nature scenery videos with accompanying audio from the nature scene pictured with sometimes non-verbal music added to create a "soothing" atmosphere. During the Christmas and holiday season, the channel will broadcast videos of a crackling fireplace during portions of the day, primarily evening, night, and early morning hours.
The channel broadcasts in both high definition and 4K resolution.

History

On February 20, 2013, Stingray Digital was granted approval from the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission to launch The Seasonal Channel, described as "a national, niche, no spoken word specialty Category B service featuring still pictures and moving video of nature scenes with appropriate music that would change based upon the season to create a soothing video environment."
The channel later launched in September 2014 as Stingray Ambiance on Vidéotron in high-definition only.
In September 2015, the channel launched a second 4K UHD feed initially on Vidéotron, marking the first 4K television channel in the Stingray portfolio.
Since the channel's original launch in Canada, it has since been launched in multiple countries including Germany, Mexico,, and Portugal, among others.
In early 2020, the channel was renamed Stingray Naturescape.
