We head to the East coast as autumn migration really heats up, with a number of mega, rare and scarce birds around it makes for an amazing birding adventure! Join us for the emotional rollercoaster.
Fantastic weekend - Red-headed Bunting, Two-Barred Greenish Warbler, Pallas's Warbler, 2 Dusky Warblers, Firecrest, Waxwings, Rough-legged Buzzard, Hen Harriers, Short-eared Owls, Barn Owl. Your first Firecrest always screams out at you...just wow! Really enjoyed reliving that weekend with you both.
hi, yes, it was mental, we were tempted to make this a 2 part video, but when we watched it we thought it flowed well enough to be a single one even though it was long!
I'm so jealous for the ring ouzel. They are EXTREMLY rare in Hungary and I haven't seen them in real life. They are in my wishlist so I hope someday I will be lucky and see one. Good luck for the next birding trip.:)
Hey Kayleigh, WHERE WE GEWIN'? 😉 Some nice sightings guys, a few I'd love to see myself (Short-eared Owl, Rough-legged Hawk/Buzzard, Firecrest). I'm also jealous of these breakfast sandwiches you guys have enjoyed the last couple of times 😂
Congratulations on all the nice birds (especially the megas). I am so jealous of the barn owl, been birding for 25 years in Sweden and still not seen one. We had a fair share of megas in Sweden too though. Swainson´s Thrush, a Western Subalpine Warbler and a Southern Grey Shrike. And now we got a group of Northern Bald Ibis too, but I don´t think you can count them in the Swedish list since they are not considered to be "wild enough". They were involved in some kind of project
Wow where do I begin... In recent years I've seen both Red-headed Bunting and Two-barred Warbler in the Netherland. Of the last one I got some graet footage. Also it's so surprising to me that you can see hunting Barn Owls in the twilight or even during broad daylight while here in the Netherlands they only come out when it's pitch black dark. Also so cool to see the emotions when Kayleigh saw her first Firecrest!! Great video all in all. It's these days that count. Sadly fall migration was very bad this year in the Netherlands. It was actually the third most rainly october sice the beginning of weather recordings. The best bird was the third Yellow-browed Bunting but last year we had the second case which was twitchable for four days so almost everybody had the bird already.
Well done both of you, an amazing birding trip! Loved Kayleigh's emotional pleasure at finding her firecrest. Birding at its best! All those raptors and owls too! Megas, lifers, celebratory beverages and good breakfasts. I have a week of birding in Suffolk next week but not expecting it to be a trip so productive. So thank you for another great video! I hope the traffic wasn't so bad going home!
Really good videos I’ve been watching you for awhile, it took me ages to pick up on your videos because the graphic looks so American and the name looks American too. Not a criticism just an observation. So now I’ve got to go back and watch all your videosI live in Yorkshire and look after most of the YORKSHIRE WILDLIFE TRUST reserves with regards to interpretation of signage. I’ve liked and subscribed and I did hit that bell. Keep them coming very enjoyable.
