Nice video Sir and very beautiful bike. But i have the impression that your handlebar is backwards , your fork sims ok because the brakes are in the front of the bike, but your handlebar and your shift are on the opposite side i think. Cheers from Brazil
Great video mate, enjoyed it. We have subscribed in support! We know how hard it can be to produce good content and get your RU-vid off the ground. We're a small channel too and going through it ourselves. So really wanted to show our support. Keep up the good work! Wish you success
Youre welcome@@paulnesbittwildlifephotogr4861. It's a tough game and we've been struggling to get our subscriptions up. So we try to show our support and help others when we see them working hard to make great videos. Keep up the good work!
I also struggled with how heavy my canon r6 and ef lenses was, so I went over to M43 the quality is just as good they are cheaper as are the lenses and most of all a third of the weight.
When recording video on an R7 you should see a red dot with REC behind it in the upper right corner. There should be recording time in the bottom right corner. I’ve used an R7 for the past year.
Your photo at 03:45 of the close-up with fish in beak is the best photo I've seen you show. Very good! By way of constructive critique I would humbly venture to suggest that your videos would be improved by editing out the zoom-ins and outs, and also some of the lees stable moments. Onwards and upwards though, eh? Keep sharing and all the best Paul. Graham. 👍🙂👍 P.S. can't help you on the guns question as it's an area I have no experience of.
Having many pairs of eyes and ears definitely helps with spotting things which one person on their own could easily miss. Plus, the exchange of knowledge is invaluable. I noticed one of your Adders had a cloudy eye which, I'm given to understand, is an indication that it's not far from its next moult / shed. I'm actually in the process of post-production on a soon-to-be-released video about Adders! 🙂 👍
Looks like you had a great day. Here's to more "Red Letter Days". Probably my best so far was March 16th 2019 - otters in Suffolk - as seen here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wgw6ztuvsMU.html
Hi Paul, when I spotted the thumbnail I had to have a proper look, this reserve is one where I have been working as volunteer for more than a decade!, it is very nice to see and recognise so much. Watching this reminds me of how much I actually miss when I am there all day working!, I must get out there on some other days. The massive deer herd use some of the more secluded parts of the reserve to rest and shelter and combined with numerous Muntjac have a significant impact on the plant life The other notable mammal is the resident population of Water Voles who have been doing very well in the current absence of Mink. The Marsh Harriers have been breeding there successfully for many years now but as you say last year's nest was predated, the pair have now been there for several weeks and do appear to have started a nest. There are also loads of Chiffchaffs and Blackcaps, Goldfinches, Treecreepers, Wrens and Chetti's Warblers. One of the interesting aspects of this site is the fact that it offers so much interesting wildlife on such a small site. Cheers, Richard.
If you can get there a little bit earlier in the day you might be able to avoid the heat haze that you were getting with the dear & some of the other long shots. Great video again young sir, keep em coming.
I saw the heard of deer in your video when I was at Fowlmere a couple of weeks ago, I tried to get close but unfortunately the wind was behind me so I stopped as didn’t want to spook them. The image isn’t worth it if the subject your trying to capture will be disturbed or will get stressed whilst trying to capture it, a fantastic wildlife photographer on RU-vid who makes this his No1 priority is Morton Hilmer who is an incredible photographer from Denmark.
Hi l was at lackford lakes yesterday.Good sighting's of the 2 pairs of Marsh Harrier's 1 from car park then over the Marshes. Always love the stump there great place to Photograph the small birds coming and going. may put a video out this week of my visit.
Hi Ajs1501, we also go to Lackford quite frequently and are never disappointed, Fowlmere is not quite up to the same standard but boxes well above its weight for its size!.
@@paulnesbittwildlifephotogr4861 Hi I'm planning to go again after the holiday, I like to get there at 5ish I have the place to myself for a couple of hours. The tree stump is such a great place to sit, I always put up some branches on it so you dont get the same pictures as every 1 els.
Glad you managed to get out. The weather has been totally pants lately and what with being beset by flu and now a cold I've not been able to get out anyway. Here's to better things in the coming weeks. Have a good Easter Paul. 👍
I Know I watched the video. Highlight of today 2 set's of Marsh Harriers 1 in car park other Pair on the reserve. Bussy by 12pm Good Friday to be expected. stay well stay safe. @@NaturallyCuriousUK
A great video Paul, really enjoyed it! I’m one of the RSPB volunteers who occasionally mans the reception hut at Fowlmere, sorry nobody was around when you visited to give more information on the reserve. The new loo is now up and running, so hopefully we can more often have a presence at the reserve. The boardwalks and a new bridge over the stream have been recently improved and upgraded by the warden with a team of volunteers, they do great work. As people have told you the reserve was originally farmed as watercress beds until the late 1960s and the site was bought by the RSPB in the 1970s with money raised by the RSPB junior branch. The site has SSSI status and the chalk stream is an important feature. Water originally came from natural springs from chalk aquifers but due to recent high levels of abstraction it is now supplemented by water being pumped in from elsewhere. The stream is the start of the river Shep that rises here and the water eventually flows into the river Cam. I’m sure someone at the RSPB can give more detailed information. I think from your video that Warbler you saw along the stream might be a Chiffchaff, some have been seen feeding along there in the reeds recently. There are Cetti’s warblers around too, often by the big Reedbed hide. Good that you got to see the Owls and Harriers. A good source of sightings at the reserve is the blog by Ade Cooper here cooperandscott.wordpress.com/
Great video Paul. I was there a few ago & managed to see the Barn Owl hunting right by the entrance, but apart from that it was very quiet. Have you tried The Lodge RSPB Reserve? It’s about a 25 minute drive from Royston & I understand is the RSPB Head office. The strange thing is though there is no water on the reserve which was a big disappointment as that is one of the first areas I tend to head for as love to watch & photograph waterfowl. The other reserve which is quite good & not a million miles away is Lackford Lakes in Burry St Edmonds.
Hi Mark people from Fowlmer have been telling me of this place but have not been there can you send me a like to it. i have been so taken by Fowlmere i have been there three time's this week' had a early morning session and a late evening, each time it is producing a lot of different bit's of wild life for me. Thank's fot dropping me a line.
Looks like a decent reserve Paul, and the first I'd heard about it. It was interesting to hear your reasons for doing what you're doing, your background in landscape photography, and the challenges you're having with re-acquainting yourself with various bird species. Some decent photos in there too. 👍 Glad you found out about the chalk stream. The RSPB webpage about the reserve mentions it. 🙂
👍 I've been to Fingringhoe Wick a few times - mostly a bit later in the spring when the Nightingales are singing. In fact, the most watched video from my channel is one which just features Nightingale song and photo from Fingringhoe: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-a0YHwqr8c4Q.html 🙂
As a was saying in the video this is one of the best reserves i have been to enjoyed everything about the day. intend to make a few more visits to this location this year. on a personal not hope your well and not working to hard. stay well stay safe.
Very nice Paul, I've clicked the "Like". However..., and do please correct me if I'm wrong, but I think you might have already published this video under a different title and with a different thumbnail? 🤔
Beautiful photo of a bird and deer. My favorite is the kingfisher photo. Big LIKE. I'm a new friend here from Singapore. Happy new year and happy birding!!! 👍🔔
Nice varied selection there Paul, with some real crackers. Top picks for me were the lightning over the volcano, the aurora, the kingfisher with fish, and the rowing boats on the lake. Wishing you a Happy New Year and a healthy and photo-filled 2023 too mate. 👍🙂👍
Thank you so much for the comments. Have a great new year. Hope to get lot's more great content for next year. Starting of in January on the west African coast.
Nice one Paul. Good advice about having a "Plan B". That hadn't occurred to me but it makes total sense, especially if you're travelling some distance to a place. Good smooth footage off the k1 there and it'll be interesting to see the difference in sound between the onboard mic and an external mic. You did well to make the most of an infrequent opportunity with the snowy conditions. Good stuff! 👍👍👍
Many thanks for sharing! It's great to see so many bird species that we don't normally see in Asia. Just curious ... where is this lakford lake located?
