I came for the birds but I’m staying for the Sarah content! 😍

Love to see hear more of Sarah in the vids

@BritHikesOntario 5 месяцев назад

Haha, she's going to replace me! Working on trying to encourage her to speak more :)

@NathanWebb-c5h 5 месяцев назад

That was wonderful! I recently saw a red-headed woodpecker when I went walking.

@BritHikesOntario 5 месяцев назад

Cool bird, hope you enjoyed seeing it as much as we did 😊

@marcussmith1768 5 месяцев назад

Yay Sarah! Great to see you start the video off, not that I don't like the normal format lol. Love Titmice, so cute, and I also love Junko's. I saw my first in the New Forest in Hampshire a decade ago after 2 previous failed attempts. Was a very cheeky chappy and only 2nd ever North American passerine in the UK (first being a common Yellowthroat in Wales). Good job as always.

Wish I knew you were coming to Windsor, I have a reliable Red Headed Woodpecker come to the feeder

@BritHikesOntario 5 месяцев назад

There was supposed to be a pair in the east of Toronto last year, but we couldn't find it. Nice to have one on your feeder 😀

Well you gave me a few places to check out. I did forget to tell you about Kensington Metro park. They have Blue Herring nest in tree's Usually around 12 -15. It's pretty cool. I hoped you enjoyed the Michigan trip. I know a place I walk that jas several red headed wood peckers and a Porthonatary warbler nest Hope you come back soon

@BritHikesOntario 5 месяцев назад

Thanks Susan. Kensington... ahem... might... be in the next video haha. That was one of our favourite stops.

@susanmatako8469 5 месяцев назад

@@BritHikesOntario I hoped you had bird seed with you. The Titmice and Chicadees love eating out of your hand. Come back soon!😁

Great birding. I am 3 Birds ahead of you with 114 species so far!

@BritHikesOntario 5 месяцев назад

Nice! Just Ontario? We are allowing ourselves to go outside of Ontario (basically anywhere south of Ontario/Minnesota) so we will get a big bump on a future Florida trip.

Bahahahahaha it's probably your accent and the way you say Antario 😂 I recently recommended your channel to a bird enthusiast. 😉 WOW!!! A bald eagle ❤ You're killing me with the deer and turtle 😊

@BritHikesOntario 5 месяцев назад

I'm actually just testing to see if people are listening, MJ 😉 Thanks for recommending us 😊

Ta-Da! Only 189 left, with this part. Was this the Easter weekend?

@BritHikesOntario 5 месяцев назад

Yep, an Easter weekend road-trip. Feverishly trying to edit everything together!

@cliffhawley1768 5 месяцев назад

Very cool. I think I'm caught up on episodes after my trip to Panama.

@BritHikesOntario 5 месяцев назад

Welcome back, Cliff. Sounds like a more elaborate trip than Michigan. Bet you saw loads.

@cliffhawley1768 5 месяцев назад

@@BritHikesOntario It was a spectacular trip. We had 430 species and about a hundred were lifers for me. We saw some crazy tough birds like Maroon-chested Ground-Dove and Wrenthrush.

@92kingsly 5 месяцев назад

It's a big disappointment to me that we don't get tufted titmice here in Toronto -- never thought of going to Windsor to see them. In fact, I'd never heard of that park. Could be a good side trip on a Point Pelee visit.

@BritHikesOntario 5 месяцев назад

Check out FWR Dickson Wilderness Area not far from Cambridge. They seem to have extended their range and have been successfully breeding there.

@DaveCollierCamping 5 месяцев назад

I seen two Red headed woodpeckers at my aunt and uncle’s yesterday close up no camera with me though 🫤 I was getting firewood and visiting not out for Photography. You pronounced Michigan correctly I believe 😊 everyone else normally says Mishhh lol

@BritHikesOntario 5 месяцев назад

Oh yeah? Is that near where you are? Or were until you moved? I'm usually hyper-aware on how I ought to pronounce local words, but "Mish" instead of "Mitch" didn't even occur to me lol
