Ah so jealous of your 40 acres, I have 12 and see some pretty cool things, but you really must be living the dream out there. You should make a video on the coolest wildlife experience you’ve had on your property
That's a great idea, Martha! I've started doing some vlogging on my channel Rogue Birder ...hope to see you there 😀

🐦😮😀👍👍
Very beautiful. 😀👍👍👍
it's a beautiful creature...no doubt😊😊
😀👍👍👍
Good job
Guillemot?
Yes, a Common Guillemot or Common Murre. This Auk is more adorable than any plush toy I've ever seen! Last weekend it even sat calmly through a live music concert at the boat dock. I need to go back this weekend and see if it's still there.
Beautiful little bird. X
Are the calls are the start of the video hermit thrushes or swainson's? in washington I have heard calls like that, and my merlin app said swainson's
To my ear definitely Swainson's Thrush! This was filmed in late June and they are at their most melodious and vocal here on Whidbey Island at that time of year. I just wish they weren't so darned secretive with their appearances...or maybe it's better that way idk ;-) Cheers, Declan btw I'll be starting a couple new channels... Rogue Birder, Nest Quest Chronicles, and Doomsday Jays! Super appreciate if you checked them out
Nice bird ❤❤❤❤
YESSSS Shorebirds!!! Hello Killdeer, I love their little peeps.

Nice❤❤❤
Nice and beauty❤
Thank you friend! It's been ages since I had a comment on this video, I appreciate it 🤗 This was definitely one of the best nest watches I've done so far 🪺 Cheers, Declan
Beautiful bird !
Of the animals named for George Steller, this Steller's Jay manages to somehow escape the dark curse attached to the ill-fated naturalist, and thrives today west of the Rocky Mountains with an endearing and raucous bravado! Cheers and happy birding, Declan 🤗🐦🦉
They're such spectacular little creatures!
Absolutely, I will always be enthralled with them!
Wow - that is the tallest tripod I've ever seen😆nice to see your setup!
One tripod is piggybacked on another with the aid of duct tape. I wouldn't normally do this but the configuration of the feeder with its squirrel proofing required a good height to attain eye level with the birds. Mind you, I like squirrels well enough, I think they're adorable...on the ground 😊
Duct tape solves so many problems😂
@@MyaYard 👍🏼When I was a kid there was a TV program called 'The Red Green Show'...much of my use of duct tape today was inspired by it! 😂
🤣Yup - I remember that show, I get it!😂

Meeting this hummingbird was like listening to a song for the first time and knowing it would be my favorite 🌈🐦🤗
Barred Owl
who-cooks-for-you, who-cooks-for-you-a-all 🦉Cheers, Declan 🤗
I love this time of year!!! One of the robins that frequent my feeders was killed by a neighborhood cat this morning ( underneath my feeder) I was so devastated. She usually got peanuts and red grapes from me. 😢
That's terrible, so sorry to hear that 😢 I really love robins, I think they're the hardest working birds in showbiz! One of 'em built a nest nearby on the side of a storage shed, I'll try to get a little vid for you if they're still there 🐣🐣
@@okay_birds oh I hope you can get a Pic or two , Robins are special.
@@yourenough3 Very special
What a beautiful bird, those colors!! Great shot!
Like this hummingbird, you are one in a million! Thanks 😃
😘
Bam! 🎣
From this angler things look pretty good! Cheers, Declan 🎣
විඤ්ඤාණයෙන් මැවෙන බොරුවක් නේද?
ඉතා සිත්ගන්නා ප්රශ්නයක්! මම අහල තියෙනවා විද්යාත්මකව කියනවනම් අපි යථාර්තය ලෙස දකින්නේ ඇත්තටම අපේ මොලය විසින් නිර්මාණය කරන ලද මායාවකි. "මම පඳුරක සිහින දකින දළඹුවෙක්ද, නැතහොත් දළඹුවා මට සිහින දකියිද?" Cheers, Declan 🦉
Amazing shot ~ loved the full video too!
Ah thanks, I had fun filming this heron!
That look exactly like cuckoos egg
I didn't know this, thanks for bringing it to my attention! Turns out the female Cuckoo decides what color the egg will be and it can indeed lay blue eggs to match the eggs of the host nest! Brilliant 👌🥚💙 Cheers, Declan 🦉
Кукушка несёт одно яйцо в чужое гнездо , но лучше не смотреть гнёзда это плохо кончится для родителей . Мой совет ,а вы как хотите красиво но может быть трагедия.
Beautiful close-ups and details. Beautiful! Thanks for sharing. Wish you a pleasant Sunday. Best regards, Knut.
This was like the very last day the flower munching was on tap so I was happy to capture it when I did, some people don't believe me when I describe what these finches were doing. Thanks very much and cheers, Declan 🌸🐦🤗
Congrats.
very nice documentation
Thanks so much for watching, I appreciate you! Cheers, Declan 🤗
Salam kenal Dari palembang 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Senang bertemu dengan kamu juga! Salam dari Seattle Washington State dan lebih khusus lagi Pulau Whidbey dimana kami memiliki jembatan bernama Deception Pass sebagai saudara dari Jembatan Ampera Anda 🌉Cheers, Declan 🐦🦉

Hummingbird straight, no chaser 😊Cheers and thanks, Declan 🐦
❤❤❤❤
Thanks so much for watching! Cheers and greetings from Whidbey Island 🌊Declan 🦉
Super awesome sharing. Happy weekend 👍🏻
I see you're a HERON lover! Great to meet you! Thanks so much for taking the time to comment, I appreciate you 🙏🏼 Cheers, Declan🦉🤗🐦

HERMOSA AVE ‘Dive-Bombing' Crows Are Attacking People in Hermosa Beach A nearby hotel hired a professional falconer to scare away the crows with a trained hawk twice a week... Unfortunately the crows here in Washington State aren't the least bit scared of the slow and peaceful Barred Owl, quite the opposite I'm afraid, as I've seen the demise of these beautiful owls at the hands of crows. 🦉
Random crow sound that made it sound like it came from the owl got me tripping for a second THAT TIMING IS WILD
Yeah I totally left that in for that reason! Thanks for watching, I like your username...I have a long snout frenchie myself 🐶Cheers, Declan 🦉
Okay Birds 🦅 Fly high . Look up JESUS CHRIST LOVE OF GOD!Amen!🌹🕊
It's true enough I spend far too much time looking down, your words of encouragement are touching, thank you! Cheers, Declan 🐦🦉🤗
This was really relaxing to watch, I loved the journal-like structure.
I hope that what comes across, maybe even more so than detailed studies of the birds I love, is how much I enjoy and am grateful to be doing this! Thanks so much and cheers, Declan 🐦🦉🤗
Hoooooty hoooooo ❤😂😊
Feral Aero - now that name is really fire! Hoo hoo hoooo right back at ya! Cheers, Declan 🦉🤗🐦
Wow..in India we have a similar looking heron called grey heron
They are very similar aren't they? Even more than continents, body and bill size, what distinguishes the two for me are the chestnut color thighs of the Great Blue. I'd love to study one of your Greys some day! Cheers, Declan 🐦🤗🦉
Wonderful sounds too. 💜🦉
The woods were really alive when this was filmed! That time is right around the corner again...just yesterday I heard the first swallows of the year! Cheers, Declan 🐦🤗🦉
Beautiful footage of owl
Thank you, much appreciated! Cheers, Declan 🦉🤗🐦
Maravillosas imágenes 👍.
Thanks very much, I get to work with the best models as a wildlife photographer!🦉😊🐦 Cheers, Declan
