Supernature was the first story in The Return of Jo Jones. It was written by Matt Fitton and featured Tim Treloar as the Third Doctor and Katy Manning as Jo Jones.
Publisher's summary
After a spate of terrifying bird attacks, Jo Jones is called to the Isle of Wight by an old friend. Something has thrown the natural order out of balance - but Jo's own world has also changed forever.
It turns out she is not the only one investigating. Soon it's like old times, facing down arrogant scientific ambition, as danger grows. The Doctor and Jo have been reunited just when they need each other most.
Plot
Part one
Accompanied by podcaster Al Hunter, Jo travels to the Isle of Wight to help Dr Lorna Holmes and Malcolm Hollings investigate a series of attacks by birds and goes with them to a research base at a lighthouse. They find the Doctor doing the same and escape a bird attack, with Al and Lorna taking refuge in the lighthouse with Ms Frost whilst Jo and the Doctor flee with Malcolm and catch up, talking about how Jo has met another Doctor and that the Doctor has been travelling alone since Llanfairfach.
Learning of a spaceship which crashed during the Cretaceous Period, the Doctor theorises that the birds' ancient lizard brains are being awoken and their aggression exploited. Malcolm is driven over the cliffs and the Doctor finds the right frequency on his sonic screwdriver to repel them, giving it to Jo to protect herself, Al and Lorna as they return to their car and find shelter at Lorna's cottage. The Doctor return to the lighthouse and is locked up by Ms Frost, who knows of his reputation and intends to use him to control a psionic pulse emitter.
The animals around Lorna's cottage surround the building, cutting off any escape and cancelling out the sonic screwdriver's frequency per the orders given by Ms Frost. Connected to the emitter, the Doctor hears a scared and angry voice which, he believes, wants to destroy everybody.
