  • Note: spelling error is not Straited Pardalote, it is a Striated Pardalote.
    Also the adult Scarlet Robins feature both an adult male and female.
    Perfect for the casual birdwatcher, or those wanting an idea of what birds they will find in one day of bird watching at a northern Victoria birding hotspot.
    Some of the species include the Swift Parrot, variety of Honeyeaters, Diamond Firetail, Scarlet Robin and many more.

    Fantastic work and you have a real talent for recording video footage, Roger! Your beautiful took me back to the 3 sessions I had at Chiltern at the end of April and the first of May. I'll definitely be looking at more of your videos. Thank you so much for sharing them.

      Thank you for the kind feedback. I wish I had more time there, so much more to see. Plenty more birds to watch in my other videos I hope you enjoy them (my recent ones are better production quality then the older ones)

    Saw your photos on eBird. We went to Cessnock to try swift parrots but didn't see any. We did see regent honeyeaters though! Great photos as usual.

    It was great to see the treecreepers casually defying gravity along the tree trunks. ^_^ Nuthatches do that in the U.S., and it's a fun show I could watch for hours.
    Beautiful footage of the swift parrots, too. Some of the mid-action shots you took are sheer comedy.
    And it's always interesting to learn which birds tuck their feet over their wings to scratch their faces, versus bring their feet up by their bellies for same. This video added another in the over-wing category for me.

      Thanks for the info. I’m glad you enjoyed the video. I will be in the States later this year, will do some birding while there maybe I will see a nuthatch.

    • @RogerMacKertich
      @RogerMacKertich  21 день тому +1

      Thank you I hope you find my videos informative and entertaining. Get yourself a good bird guide, book for starters, then start identifying birds around your home. Then learn some basic facts about them. Slowly look for birds further from home, and expand your knowledge. It is a really fun hobby and you get to learn a lot of natural history along the way

      Thank you. I think that they may be around most of the winter, then head back to Tassie as the temp warms up.
