How cool are these birds-I just love his ‘trousers’….she is a beast…so big! The calls are amazing! the food passes seriously awesome 🙌 xx
Yeah, hes a smart dude that Cooper's puts up with a lot from his Wife, good job I've got a good one, lol... Yeah those food passes were awesome to witness and so close I could hear everything. Thanks x
This is so relaxing the David Attenborough of bird 📸
Cheers Nik, I wish, lol.. All the best 👍
What a brilliant day you had Richard. Great stills and footy. What a way to finish up before you move. All the best Steve.
Thanks very much Steve, such a great time with the Hawk's and a memorable experience for sure. Hoping for a great move with lots more wildlife to come. Cheers R👍
Awesome captures, Rich. I was on a bird walk with Audubon one time when we all saw a Cooper's Hawk perched way up high on a branch, fully visible to all in our group. Our leader told us, "This is a Cooper's Hawk who are bird-eating birds..." and she no sooner got that sentence out of her mouth before the hawk swooped down, as if on cue, grabbed a Red-winged Blackbird on the ground, and turned and headed straight for the woods! Our mouths hung open for a second trying to absorb all the awesomeness that moment had for us. I'm so happy you got to see all this and share it with us!
Thanks June really glad you enjoyed the video, it was so much fun doing it.
Wow, thats quite a story and it's hard to believe when it happens right in front of your eyes, hard for some to watch but that's Nature in all it's rawness for you. So pleased you thought so. Thanks again for the Coffee. 🙏
wow another great video, lovely footage and still there Richard, I crave for days when you have those amazing experiences, there is nothing better than being alone in the woods with the wildlife. Such beautiful birds,
Thanks mate, much appreciated. Yeah days like those are always few and far between but when the magic happens it really gives you the best feeling. And alone in the woods is certainly the way I like to do business. Thanks for watching. Rich 👍
Fantastic work Richard well done
Cheers mate, glad you enjoyed it. R🙏👍
Outstanding footage Richard
Thanks very much Darren, loved being there with them! Sad to say bye but it was a great experience. R👍
Absolutely brilliant mate 👏
Thank you mate, Cheers Rich👍
Hi Rich, top video indeed 👍 such beautiful birds these hawks, he was bringing some prey in there weren't he 😮 marvellous. Thanks for bringing us along Mate 👍📸📸
Hey Lee, it was a great way to finish and one for the memory books as it was a delight to see and observe a raptor so close and to learn about a new specie. He was a great hunter although getting a hard time from the adult female. Thanks for watching . R👍
Amazing footage Rich! Such beautiful birds. Thanks for all your efforts bringing us these shots 👍
No worries Mike, my pleasure and thanks for giving it a watch. More to come very soon:-) 👍
Wow! Just Wow! Amazing work and what an experience to end your time there. 👏🏻👍🏻
Thanks so much, really enjoyed my time with them! Any birds are awesome but Birds of Prey are Extra special. Thanks R👍
Great photography as always Richard, looking forward to the next chapter.
Thanks very much indeed Mark, lots coming very soon and some a bit further away 😉👍
Wow what a truly amazing experience. Absolutely fantastic. Great footage and stills, your knowledge, skills and dedication was rewarded big time. Brilliant, thank you. All the best. 👍📷😎
Thanks so much Rob, really glad you liked it as much as I did filming and photographing it. Top man, thanks as always Rich 👍
Congratulations again Richard! Incredible behavioural videos and stills! Thanks for sharing.
Many thanks Stephen, nice to see the behavior and capture some images along the way. Cheers Rich 👍
What an awesome and so amazing video to watch Richard, such wonderful footage and great natural behaviour captured, love those beautiful images, well done, I so appreciate the hard work you put into all your videos 👍👍👍
Many thanks Raymond, so glad you enjoyed it, they are certainly special birds and I feel privileged to have spent time with them over the 12 month period. All the best Rich 👍
Awsome Richard that was some plucking post, it's been great following your adventures over the pond and I look forward to your future adventures. All the best Andy 👍
Thanks Andy,
Glad you enjoyed it mate. Yeah that post has seen some serious action and was such a lucky find. Cheers for following the journey. Rich
Thank you, Richard for putting in all the hard work and proper talent on producing these very special videos. It takes a lot of dedication and persistence to put yourself in that situation and get those spectacular results. It doesn't get any better than that. Proper job done and on to your next adventure. Cheers, Phil
Thanks Phil, really glad you like the video. Birds of Prey are always my thing but these Hawks really did put on a fantastic show for me and one I'll always remember for some time to come. On to the next chapter, thanks again for supporting the channel. R👍
That was brilliant! I love birds of prey. Thanks so much! (I'm all caught up with the recent videos! LOL!!!)
Glad you like them all Jon, and thanks for catching up! Nice to know you are still following the channel and I appreciate it very much my friend. R
Excellent footage Richard, thank you for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it Ron, my pleasure. Cheers R
A real joy to watch.Looking forward to more lovely vlogs from Ottawa .🥰👍
Thanks Mum, so glad you enjoyed it! Lots More to come very soon. M x
Brilliant video bang on lovely close footage thanks for sharing 👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks so much, my pleasure. All the best Rich 👍
Great photography Richard, well done.
Many thanks Martin, all the very best Rich 👍
Ho Richard that was absolutely AMAZING you blow it out of the park with that video, the footage was outstanding definitely your best yet, they are certainly prolific hunters squirrel had a bad ending but that nature for you, I’m amazed at that video truly was brilliant Richard, good luck with the move mate thank you for sharing it with us. Martyn
Ah, thanks Martyn. Glad you think it's one of the best and you've been following me for quite sometime now so I really appreciate it. Yeah, it's a hard pill to swallow sometimes but thats the way nature is, RAW at times but beautiful all the same. Thanks, see you in the next one. Take care Rich 👍
Awesome footage Richard!
Cheers Steve, glad you enjoyed it. R👍
Bloody fantastic stuff Rich! 👌🙌👏👏👏
I’m so pleased for you mate, I know it’s never easy to deliver in front of the camera; but you earnt this bud. Incredible footage & stills, cleaned up nicely considering they were up to 8000 ISO, & it’s also pleasing to see that even seasoned pro’s like yourself get carried away in the moment at times, & just get trigger happy with the shutter button when the adrenaline rush kicks in. Mega mate, just mega 👏👏👏
Best of luck to you & the family on the next chapter of your Canadian adventure 🇨🇦
Keep on keeping on mate!
Catch you for the next one soon.
All the best,
Nick
Hey Nick,
Thanks buddy I really appreciate it, so nice when people get to see what I do and enjoy coming along for the ride, yeah I was pushing that ISO which the R3 handled really well, I dropped some down to 1/60th hoping to get a better image so some worked and some didn't but it's all camera memory fiddling around with the buttons and trying not to get lost in the excitement, lol..
I always get pretty excited and if that stops I'll hang up the camera, chances of that!!!! Slim to none, lol... Thanks again mate and see you in the next one. Rich 👍
What fantastic experience mate.
Much appreciated John 👍
hi Richard
I haven't followed you for a while. beautiful images are shown here again. Have a good time in Ottawa.
Thanks my friend and Welcome back, I've missed your comments but glad you are still watching now and then. Hope you are keeping well my friend. Cheers Rich 👍
Congrats Richard! Great footage! Now you'll have to find a goshawk nest. 😀
Thanks very much David, now that's a bird I need a date with, lol... 😅👍
Ya what an experience to of witnessed that !! Like you say ,that’s when field craft comes into play !! Totally get your excitement getting those sequences. And sorry to say it ,but in my opinion this is where filming comes into play to get sequences & audio just makes it better than a photo ! Guessing your trail camera came into play at the end of the blog !! I was thinking that when you showed the killing log , that a camera would work a treat on there !! 🎥 mate a delight to watch first class 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Hey Craig,
Thanks mate, really glad you thought it was a good one and I agree having video does bring the story to life much more than just a still image. Always excited in Nature, I think when I start saying it's only a Buzzard or something it's time to hang up the camera, I doubt that will ever happen, lol... Cheers Rich
This video was like a whole other level of amazing!!
Beautiful out of focus background of greens and browns behind the log... bright and dark...pro sharp are heck!
It's interesting that it almost seems like there's a bit of intimidation done by the female towards the male!
Thanks Jon,
I'm really glad you enjoyed the video, it was so much fun spending the time with these amazing birds. I loved the light and darkness of the woodland and the light bouncing off the birds showing their light and dark side. Cheers R
WOW, amazing pics you got there, folloing you from Denmark
Thanks very much indeed Stephen, great to have you follow me from Denmark. Cheers Rich 👍
Top Drawer
Cheers buddy:-)
Thanks!
Thanks so much June 😊👍
Well done mate! I know you'll be sorry to say goodbye to them when you move to Ottowa. Thanks to your video I can now confirm I've seen one too! I've been trying to look it up but when I saw one landing on your footage with the fantail bars and colours that pretty much confirmed it. Great footage and keep going!! 👌
Thanks Phil, yeah it was sad to leave that spot for sure! Still onwards and upwards to the next chapter in our lives! Seen my first Bald Eagle over the river, gave me a call too!! Amazing experience.. Glad you got to see one, amazing birds. Cheers R
Looking forward to seeing you in Ottawa.
Thanks very much Phillip, loving it so far! Arrived on Sunday and see my first close Bald Eagle! What a bird 👍
@@RichardBirchett Great. Yes they are wonderful birds, the national bird for us here in the US but it was almost not so. Ben Franklin lobbied hard for the wild turkey to be the national symbol. Old Ben was wise but he missed it there I think! P.
@philipculbertson55 thanks Phillip, I was telling my young son who was with me it was your national bird! I like turkeys but the baldy gets my vote. Cheers for that info, I’ll use that and say thanks to you when I do a video on them 👍
@@RichardBirchett Hey Richard, I need to clarify the record on Franklin and the Bald Eagle. I looked up the story and he did not lobby congress for the wild turkey to be the US symbol though he didn't care for the bald eagle. In a letter to his daughter, here is what Ben Franklin actually wrote: "the “Bald Eagle...is a Bird of bad moral Character. He does not get his Living honestly…[he] is too lazy to fish for himself.” In the letter, he went on to write bout the turkey that in comparison to the bald eagle, the turkey is “a much more respectable Bird, and withal a true original Native of America...He is besides, though a little vain & silly, a Bird of Courage.”
So Richard I set the record straight. I didn't want you to be misinformed. The info above came directly from the Franklin Institute. Cheers, Philip in South Carolina.
@philipculbertson55 Amazing info Philip, love it! Thanks very much for looking into it, I was only telling my wife and son about it so I’ll now tell them the exact account of what he said.
I love all facts like that so thanks very much 😀👍
👍👍🌷🌷❤❤🌹🌹👌👌
Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed it. Cheers Rich 👍
