@@arnicadesembets You're sincerely appreciated for your passion, and for sharing. My wife asked me, wondering, "does he use lots of hidden equipment, and other people's assistance in order to capture all of these stunning photographs, and film footage?" So I showed her what you said to another woman's similar question. Good, old fashioned waiting with patience joyfully until you finally capture that magical moment on camera... THAT'S how he does it! Please tell me, where is this Forest of yours?
@@christopherbellore3511 thank you Christopher, i live in France, in a little mountain called "Vosges" near Strasbourg, capital of europe. It's not very high, but i live here, nearly at the summit, i i began an organic farm from nothing but nature....www.embets.com/
@@arnicadesembets That's sounds awesome. I'm a native New Yorker, and I live in the Southern most part of the State of New York, in the Borough of Staten Island. Way out on the Southern most part of Staten Island is a town called Charleston. We live above a Bavarian Inn/ German Restaurant called Killmeyers, built in the 1800s. Outside our Apartment is a Flat Rooftop, and we have a modest, yet Victorious rooftop container garden each Spring, Summer, and Autumn. We even have a young Maple Tree, 5 years old, from a seedling. We love to grow fresh vegetables, and herbs. Btw, I just recently bought a small wheel of Sheeps Milk Cheese from France. Its a lot like The Italian grating Cheese Pecorino Romano, but slightly less salty. I use some everyday on soups, pasta, pizza, and eggs. It doesn't say what part of France it is from. 🇫🇷
I was gratified to spot a beautiful Northern Pygmy Owl last week in the Sierra Nevada foothills of California. It was early dawn and I was able to observe it for a good thirty minutes while it also observed me. They are tiny, but unmistakeable. Thank you for this video--- beautifully done!
Beautiful! I found this lovely site because I was looking for more information about these little owls. I have at least one in my cedar tree and hear the song and territorial call, but don't see him/them. Yesterday I found what looks like nesting material scattered on the ground and some on the tree limbs; I wouldn't have known what it was if I hadn't watched this video, and yet it's Winter so I'm not sure what to think. I don't expect to see them, but they are precious and it's exciting, and I'm glad they are here.
@@arnicadesembets Wow, thank you for a reply! I live in northern Oregon. From looking up owl calls in an effort to identify it, it sounds exactly like the northern pygmy owl. It does a series of little hooty toots, and sometimes a series of hooty toots with shorter pauses between, like double time. Its voice is higher in pitch than the long eared owl, and the bird sites have northern pygmy owl calls and photos/video documentation from the western, mostly northwestern, united states. I heard the hoots once at dusk, first a series of them, then a series of them with shorter pauses between, then a rest and the cycle repeated. I just listened and listened, transfixed. I wouldn't have even known it was an owl to begin with if it hadn't been one of the owls that sounded "hooty". I heard it again yesterday in the afternoon and was so happy it was still in the cedar tree. I'm no expert, and have never seen or heard of a pygmy owl or northern pygmy owl until a few days ago so this is all new to me and I don't wish to be offensive in any way. Your video and the poetic, spare language you use is at once peaceful and exhilarating, and help me remember life can be a mysterious treasure.
thank you very much Dominik. it's a great return ! i had a woofer guy at my farm, an american one and i made this english version..it was a good idea, i'll make also english versions for other good videos of wonderful places where i went to find nature....Poland, greece, Bulgaria....thank you again and happy new year
Thank you Sean ! you are my friend comment in English ! did you subscribe ? you can also share with other nature lover in England......thanks for you feedback !
Perfect Dear Dominique ,unfortunately for me i dont have time to spent in Nature exccept some Hollydays !! I hope in not so far Future !! All the Best to you !!
Bonjour, je découvre vos films. Ils sont excellents. J’aime celui-ci particulièrement pour l’histoire, le son et les images. Vous devez avoir un excellent objectif pour obtenir un flou comme celui-ci. Bonne continuation! Claude
Merci Atobit ! c'est une version anglaise ....la version Française est "rencontre avec la discrète". Mais cela ne change rien aux images....en effet, j'ai changé pas mal de caméra depuis 20 ans ! d'abord une canon xl puis la xlh puis les boitiers photos se sont mis à être performants pour la vidéo. Canon 5d markIII avec un superbe caillou 200-400 canon. Quand j'ai laissé tomber le boitier canon pour les merveilles panasonic GH....j'ai gardé le caillou, bien sûr ! avec les boitiers 4/3 la focale est multipliée par deux, je me retrouvais donc avec un équivalent 400-800 et avec en plus un multi 1,4 intégré...pour filmer en 4k....mais bon, le plus important, ce n'est pas cela, c'est la connaissance et le plaisir que l'on a à arpenter ces milieux sauvages.....
@@arnicadesembets Merci du retour! Vous avez raison au sujet de la nature. Je comprends la qualité le l’image, le 200-400mm est un superbe objectif. Les boîtiers photos on bien évolué en effet, c’est tant mieux pour nous. Vous vous servez bien de ses appareils pour raconter vos histoires.
thank you "humble little films" ! yes it is one of them....i love nature, and usually i don't feel good in big cities...but i enjoyed a few days in Chicago !
merci à toi ! c'est le même film que "une nichée de chevêchettes" ( sélectionné cette année au festival de l'oiseau sous le nom de une rencontre avec la discrète) et là, j'e l'ai fait en anglais pour les non francophones.....
thanks Melani ! no never ! i make vidéos to have great pleasures in nature, and my pleasure is to stay in a good place and then wait for magic encounters !
hello , thank you for the return ! yes, when i was ten....a long time ago, i bought six books written by a man from Switzerland, but the french one, six bookw about Europeen birds' life. And from that i wander in nature, every where in Europe to discover them....
@@arnicadesembets Thanks for the reply! I enjoy learning about animal behaviours in my study as well, but these details can only be found in very specialised books I guess -- I will definitely look out for some next time :)
