      Yes. It was the most satisfying aspect of the trip after the horror of that summer.

      @@RogerMacKertich Thanks, it's great that you are doing similar and we have had a look at your Far North one ,your photography is very impressive, excellent in fact and well presented. When we first started the movie cameras just did digital on mini-cassettes, not even high definition. You are in it at a good time so keep them coming.

    Greetings from Nova Scotia, Canada. Good to see you're back with a new video. We found your videos great for learning some of the birds before our 2018 trip to Australia. Hopefully we'll be back again in a couple of years and we'll watch them all over again before we do.

    As a resident of South Gippsland and having done the coastal trip across to Adelaide a few times I really enjoyed this video. I love the Yaratinga Wetlands, we spent a few days there at the Bird Photography Conference at Hahndorf this year. You have identified a few more spots I must visit

    This was such a pleasure to watch. I shared it with my parents too. We are from SA, so it was so interesting to see what different birds you were able to find in Victoria. Also you highlighted some places I had never thought to go! Thank you for this relaxing but informative video.

    • @alanadare7052

    Nice, thanks, Bool Lagoon was dry as a bone and no birds when I was there one summer, several years ago. (you did say it is seasonal, I guess I was there at the wrong time).

    • @andemaiar
      @andemaiar Місяць тому +1

      Bool Lagoon has no water in it more often that not. There's got to be good, consistent rain for it to fill up, which might only happen every third winter these days.

    Hello from Germany, i love your birding videos and use them as a kind of “pre-education” to our trip to australia next week. We will travel between Mackay and Port Douglas. Do you maybe have one or two recomadation where to go for some feathered jewels of your incredible continent ?
    Looking forward to the next video.

      Hi and thanks for your feedback, glad we are helping as our main aim is to encourage birdwatching. Your question, you could stay at Crater Lakes Rainforest Cottages Lake Eacham Qld. You would likely see Victoria's Riflebird among other good birds .We featured this in our Birding North East Queensland on UA-cam. You could Google ebird Queensland Australia for more great hotspots ,there is many in Queensland. Thanks again.

    The Silver-eye birds resemble the Japanese White-eye.

    Why is the Night Heron visible in the daytime despite it being a ‘nocturnal’ bird ?

    • @alanadare7052
      @alanadare7052 Місяць тому

      They usually just perch in groups in dense bushes during the day but I think this one was used to getting a free feed from fisherman at that landing gutting fish.
