Quiet morning at Jean Lafitte Barataria Wildlife Preserve south of New Orleans. Birds shown are Yellow-Bellied Sapsucker, Common Moorhen, Green Heron, female Boat-tailed Grackle, Loggerhead Shrike, Black-crowned Night Heron. Among birds heard but not seen on the video are White-eyed Vireo, Virginia Rail, Northern Cardinal, Red-Shouldered Hawk, Black-capped Chickadee, Carolina Wren, and a huge flock of Red-winged Blackbirds in the opening scene. The butterfly is a Gulf Fritillary.

Welcome to BIRDING VISIONS - portraits and sound recordings of birds and their habitats, sharing the sublime beauty of nature. These wildlife videos are both documentary and impressions of an experience. I hope you get a sense of being there: from the Rock Wren of remote Willis Creek Slot Canyon, Utah, singing Whinchat in the coastal heathland of Norway, a band of Arabian Babblers in the desert sands of Israel, to soaring Kites over Kyoto, Japan.
The playlists are organized by geographical region and topic (singing birds, shorebirds, etc). The 200+ videos are from many different places across the globe, with a focus on birds of North America and the Western Palearctic, including Europe, Israel and Morocco. This is a non-monetized no-ads channel. Contact clive.bramham@gmail.com for licensing of footage and other enquiries. Enjoy!
