This video was SO good. Very interesting to see the chicks attempting their first flight out of the nest, with the little one’s heart pounding. So scary yet heart warming.
This was incredible to watch!!!! Your dedication to observation, time commitment to nature and fascinating things in general is something I am so grateful for. Thank you.
@@DrDaveW Not only that, No bird got starve to death, normally you would expect a few to die due to lack of food or poor parenting of the parent birds but they all manage to grow up and leave the nest, altho one came close to dying from choking and one looks smaller than the rest(the last one to leave), but it just shows how much food they got around their nest, enough to feed them all to teenagerhood.
One of the highest quality narratives I’ve heard in a long time. Beautiful quality work on your video as always. Keeping this video clean allows me to show this work to others.
FYI, the bird that attacked the bird house was indeed a starling but the bird singing at 6:09 is a male blackbird and brown bird at 6:13 is a female blackbird.
Excellent video. It might be an idea to block the entrance hole and drill another hole (32mm) an inch or two higher. The current hole seems a bit low and the chicks another time might be fished out. A metal protective device (the same size as the hole) might be another good idea to prevent wood peckers opening up the hole.
Love this so much! Your dedication is admirable and your narration is easy on the ears, informative, with a touch of humor 😆 So proud of mama bird for doing all that work! Her babies seem ready to live a long life.
"Do baby birds just shit all over the nest?" "Oh no, not at all" "Ah good, because that'd be gross" "No, the mother bird just scoops it right out of their butts and eats it" "..."
YOUR VIDEO WAS VERY WELL PUT TOGETHER❤ ENJOYED THE TALK LETTING ME KNOW WHAT IS HAPPENING ON A DAY TO DAY BASIS 🤔 THANK YOU & PLEASE CONTINUE THIS GREAT CONTENT OF BIRDS LIFE🫶🏾🌹👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🌈
That bird is called the European starling they’re native to Europe, but invasive where I live they attack the nest of native woodpeckers and other cavity nesting birds
How did u manage to Record lots of footage from the "Outside" of the nest, but didnt manage to capture when the Chicks "Flew Out" of it?? 8:45 U missed out on the Best Part of it, smh.
Bravo! Check out Robert E Fuller’s cameras and video work for tips. The moderators know a ton about the process. He mostly has barn owls, tawny owls, and he has filmed doves as well.
Make a birdhouse with GPS and a bluetooth camera anyone can connect with and in the future you can just point at a tree and choose to seethe the development stages of any nest.
We have house sparrows that took over a little hanging bird nest just outside our window. They killed the previous bird owner of the home and took it over, already raising their second nest of babies and there are 5 now about to leave the nest. These things are pests and are everywhere.
I have a sparrow family the babies look like their almost ready to leave the nest idk why she wanted her nest there we walk in and out I got a dog who barks at them and me being annoying and watching alll the time lol I’ll be sad when they go!
