Hi Kevin, glad you are having a good time and are getting to spend some time there. The Foxes are soooooooo cute! 👍
Thanks ks Jeff it was a really cool experience
What an incredible display of Ha’Shems majesty and the gift HE has given you to capture it.
Sorry to pump a bunch of sunshine up your skirt, but these are some of the best images I’ve ever seen!!!! Thank you for sharing them with me!!!!
Thanks Terry it was a lot of fun out there shooting from a safe distance. God's creatures are really beautiful as long as they aren't trying to have you for lunch lol 😆 cheers man.
Thanks for sharing that with us Kevin. Awesome shots. Enjoy your time there.
thanks man
No Kevin, Thank You!!!!!!!!
Subscribed from OF today.
Thanks man
I see them at night by my house. But that was incredible kevin. What a day you had Brother
That's awesome David! Yeah rare for me as their dens can be sporadic along the lake
Loved the kits Kevin.
Thanks chuck. It was a rare moment I won't forget. Hopefully one day I can capture again.
We love that area. Don't pass up the boardwalk trail through Maumee State Park either. Also, Howard Marsh is great.
I'm along the lake every week. It's where I mainly shoot. The stretch from Maumee Bay state Park to Marblehead and the islands are wonderful 😁
@@KevinNordstrom cool. I thought you may have been just visiting. Yes, it is a wonderful location for nature photography. Leslie and I try to get up there a couple times a year. Winter is also very interesting. Another really great video.
Nope I live 15 minutes from the shore. Thanks brother 👍
@@KevinNordstrom how fortunate. About 4 hours drive for us. Keep up the great videos. Love your content.
congratulations on finding and photographing the foxes!! SUPER exciting, it is my dream!
Awesome Kevin. Well done. Myself, today, I made a major screwup by not bringing my camera with me. I missed the big bird shot of my life. My friend and I went fishing on on a reservoir just South of the British Columbia Border. Their was not another soul anywheres for miles, much less on the lake. Had high clouds and beautiful light. I was running the boat, when my friend started pointing a North. Look, look, unbelievable he was yelling. I was looking up in the sky but saw nothing, than there it was about three hundred feet above the water and moving towards us. It was a C130. It was unbelievable. It slowly passed us and then slowly banked left and came back towards us even lower yet. It was spooky. It disappeared around a curve. The only identification marks we could see were what appeared to be invasion stripes in front of the tail section. I’m still having the shakes and kicking myself for not taking my camera along in the boat. A very hard lesson for me today. Have a good one now.
What a crazy story Terry. c130s are huge.
Awesome video Kev, really enjoyed this one. Such a successful day out. Especially that ruby crowned kinglet. I just spent all morning trying to get one of those. Beautiful video buddy
Thanks Tim, yeah they are fast little guys not easy to get a photo of lol
At 1:55 that's a Blanding's turtle my friend.
thanks for the clarification, man. I get them easily confused lol
What an enjoyable experience that must have been!! I absolutely love those Fox kits, they look so healthy.
Thank you for sharing this experience with us. I find it to be inspiring for me, as I don’t always have the opportunity for a quiet nature escape.
Absolutely my please Joe. It was a great day out there. Cheers 📸
Hey Kevin, it's so cool that you had a chance to spend time with the Fox Kit's, they were having a great time playing together.
Funny... I was thinking how we would feel if all birds and wildlife were too get together for a ten day event watching and searching for humans. Being stared at and photographed all the time... lol
It sure looks like you had an amazing time!
Greg
Hahaha that would be crazy. Thanks Greg it was a rare encounter for sure and a cool experience
Soooo jealous of the fox kit pictures! I’ve never seen one let alone photographed them! Nice work. I just got back from my bird week adventures! So much to see in this area! I’m a little over an hour away. Trying to find blue grosbeaks this year, which is a lifer for me. If you have any tips, it would be appreciated! Great work and the music was perfect!
Thanks Kellmar. Always fun out there. Unfortunately no tips on the grosbeaks. I've never photographed them yet. Would be awesome too though. Thanks for the encouragement. Spring is a great time to get out with our cameras. I'm gonna dabble in some macro photography on the channel as well when the summer hits.
hey Kevin.. in the video @ approximately the 2:00 mark, you captioned that as a Northern Map Turtle when it's actually a Blandings Turtle.
Is it buck? Thank you for the correction, you're right. 📸 🐢
@@KevinNordstrom not a problem at all.. I don't know where you're located but in our area, they're in threatened status under the Endangered Species Act..
Oh wow
