    Spot on with the reality when it comes to perceived failures. I spent almost a year trying to make a video I deemed "worthy of UA-cam" also nice to hear tips that were less about "buy this camera" . Tips were all genuine and within reach of everyone.

    Love your videos - For me, being out in nature is equally as important as coming home with a killer shot or two. Never forget you miss every image you don't even try for. Good luck with the new arrival and if you and your new family ever find yourself in Florida, look me up and I'll show you around a few of my local wildlife hotspots. 👍👍👍

      @@mywildlifeimages fantastic. It’s a genuine offer. We live in Palm Bay, near the coast, due east of Orlando. I’d love to show you around. Summer is so hot that wildlife tends to hunker down or go elsewhere, but from November through to May Florida is often like a zoo with no cages.

    Another super watch Rich, with some great footage & stills of the dippers, buzzard & kingfisher. Nicely done bud! The tips are fantastic for newcomers too, & I for one can re-iteate the one about not being successful at getting images &/or video footage of your chosen subject(s). The success rate is probably less than 50% realistically, but it's all a part of the process & you need to accept it's 'wildlife' & there are no guarantees. You may have done your field craft, put the hours in, got up early & out the door for golden hour - none of this means the subject(s) will turn up. If you can accept this & just make the most of just being there, you will learn quicker & the red letter days when they come (& they will) will be all the more rewarding.
    Look forward to seeing your next vlog.
    Keep on keeping on!
    Best,
    Nick

    hahah your not going to believe this, but I have just been out today to create a new video, and what did I get to see and photograph, Dippers and Kingfishers, lol they must be friends the dippers and Kingfishers, although I was up north on Dean Beck doing more of a resonance trip which turned out a lot better than I hoped for. Love your video, by the way, great shot there mate. it almost looks like summer down there compared to the mud I had to go through today.

    Greetings from the USA (OH), where it’s pretty cold and gray. I’m new to your channel, and love the videos. Great content! It’s nice to see your process. I love the fact we have kingfishers too. Not as colorful as yours, but still! They have migrated at this point, but will be back in the spring. Being out in nature is just a gift. Nice work and thank you!
