On my recent trip to Bali, I spent 2 days with Dian (guide) and Komang (driver) from Bali Birding Tour, looking for birds in West Bali.
Did we find the Javan Pitta? What birds did we see? Was it worth the $$$? Would I do it again? All this and more on my Bali Birding Adventure!

Thanks so much Jon! Enjoy Bali, I was surprised I liked it so much - but it really was a fantastic trip.

So nice to see a well made video plus a very professional sounding informative commentary. It really makes the video so much more enjoyable. And your stills were top notch as well. As a sometime wildlife photographer myself I know how hard it can be to get good shots. 👍

Oh wow, thanks Chris! Amateur video maker but I am enjoying the learning curve 😊 And watching a lot of youtube tutorials 😂

Wow! Fabulous encounters with some gorgeous birds! I really hope Bali can switch focus & it becomes more of a bird watcher’s paradise. I had no idea it was that good. The nightjar was such a surprise!! 😁 ~ Karen

Bird tourism is a great way out of impending doom for much of Indonesia's birdlife. I really was surprised at the amount of birds, I hope it continues in the right direction! I missed quite a few shots too...really great birding.

@@flyingparrotphotography yes they need to see a financial change from destruction to nature tourism

You got some great shots Sonia. I loved the pitta photos. Never really thought of Bali as a birding destination, but you have changed my mind! Amazing

Thank you Roger. It was my first visit to Bali and I had pretty low expectations but it really was a great experience! There's plenty of birds but you do have to get out to West Bali, which is the best part IMHO...so much quieter.

Awesome video and great photos. All the birds were beautiful but the Pitta, he stole the show. I definitely need to get to Bali and go on a bird tour. I don’t think the methods of finding the birds is any different from any other birding tours around the world as long as not used exclusively, and not causing any harm to the birds. Keep the videos coming. Cheers, Merv

Isn't he stunning! I was really hoping I'd see one, it was a major highlight. The bird tours do have an off season too, so it's not constant feeding the birds rely on. The guide told me he spends off season time looking for new locations. He had amazing skills of observation and knew all the spots, made it easy for me!

And thank you for the encouragement too 😊🙏🦜

@@flyingparrotphotography Just curious, is that lens you have on your OM1 the 150-400f4 pro lens?

@flyingparrotphotography Месяц назад

@@mervroberts5134 yes it is, I've had it about 18 months, it's an amazing lens I absolutely love it - especially as I don't like using a tripod. Very light for the zoom power.

@mervroberts5134 Месяц назад

@@flyingparrotphotography I thought it was. I would love to own that lens, but would probably have to try and sell a kidney which nobody would probably want as it’s a bit on the old side.🥲

@craig9563 25 дней назад

great video - thanks. Can i ask what camera and lens you use?

@flyingparrotphotography 24 дня назад

Hi Craig, I use an OM-1, I've been a long time Olympus user. I have a variety of lenses, I've had a few questions about gear so I'm going to do a short video rundown soon, stay tuned!
