  • This evening I found and photographed the barred owls I was able to find a few days ago. This time I was able to find at least one barred owlet and also found both adults. This was a really nice and relaxing time spent sitting and enjoying the owls company. They are such amazing animals to watch and I always enjoy finding and photographing them. I hope you enjoy.

    The part around the 20:00 mark where the two owls were preening each other: priceless. ❤

    Beautiful work! I’ve never photographed barred owl babies. I have found some great horned owlets. Those fuzzy bodies are just too cute. What a great find! I would watch your channel even if I wasn’t a photographer. These videos are full of information and just beautiful productions.

    This has been a great couple of videos with the owls. A great find! I was lucky to check in a barred owl nest and 4 owlets this spring too. My little ones are elementary and middle school age now, so they were able to come with me one night! You put so much work into your videos, all of the broll adds so much in addition to the stellar main subject video and photos. I also always appreciate the natural history tid bits like explaining the connection between the caterpillars and the migrating warblers. Great work!

    the owlet in sun looks like its on fire or holy. awesome footage.
    Do you have many mosquitos? I can not go into the woods, cause ill be swarmed - sadly not able to take any pictures and many ticks also...

    • @ToddDeWaldPhotography
      @ToddDeWaldPhotography  3 місяці тому

      Yes that’s what I thought! Oh yeah the mosquitos are relentless this time of year. Lots of bug spray and long sleeve clothing helps but they are still very annoying!

    do you record video and take photos with the same camera?

    • @ToddDeWaldPhotography
      @ToddDeWaldPhotography  2 місяці тому

      For the pictures and video footage of the wildlife I use the same camera. The Nikon mirrorless allow you to flip between photo and video really easily. I do use a different camera for the footage of myself though. Not sure if that was what you were referring too. Thanks for watching!
