    Tawny swoops @ 3:42 (and at the end). Great footage. Fascinating how they do bicycle kicks with the free leg, like swimming, or sailing, in air

    Nice video Mike...I've been friends with Richard for quite a few years now, and I have been to his place to take pics of the Owls at night...Its a really strange feeling watching 6 or 7 Barn Owls queueing up to feed, hovering in the dark whilst they wait their turn.

    We get them in day light I. Merseyside as well

  • @kevintraynor4508
    @kevintraynor4508 2 роки тому +1

    It's difficult for me , on one side I think helping an owl by feeding it is positive but at same time I think owls are better hunting for there own prey ,these are wild animals

      I post at 0900 in the morning Tokyo time, but it has to be nightime somewhere in the world.

    Great photography Mike love the Barn owls , a good supply of mice or chics required !

    Great footage, Mike!
    I wonder if another light, set for just a little fill, up high would raise these results from excellent to superb?
    I use my 40-150 a lot..
    Even for largte spiders, it works superbly

    Wow great idea and cool video. I think I will try something similar, just using some roadkill and I’ll see what animals come around. Also, although I have brought lights with me to shoot reptiles and amphibians at night, I’ve never thought to set up lights in a single spot and attract an animal in- I’ll try this with a small colony of rats in the back yard.

    Amazing! Looks like a lot of fun.... the lights didn’t bother the owls 🦉!??.... were you able to get any still shots ...?

    • @MikeLaneFRPS
      @MikeLaneFRPS  3 роки тому

      Only the thumbnail for this video. Flash is needed for stills and the flash spoils the video so you can't do both.

    What an amazing video Mike - thank you. This has come at exactly the right time for me as I finally decided to make a (slow) switch from full frame Canon to Olympus MFT after a lot of research which of course, included this channel. (Just taken my mighty EF 600mm f/4 for trade in value assessment). I say "right time" as I am still a little unsure when it comes to the performance of MFT cameras in dark conditions although saying that, Richard's lights must have helped. What sort of ISO figures were you shooting here and did you take any stills with the Olympus? It would be good to learn what settings you were using if taking stills. (I'm very slowly trying to get to grips with video).

    • @MikeLaneFRPS
      @MikeLaneFRPS  3 роки тому +1

      The only still picture I took was the thumbnail for this video. It was with flash. 400 iso. Flash spoils the video so you can't do both. I do not know the iso of the video. There is no Exif data and it was auto iso.

    Sorry, but the music adds nothing to the otherwise fantastic video.
