    This video made me cry. The little badger looking up to the bigger badger and just the incredible light in the forest. Thank you for such beauty.

    You don't need patience when you know how to enjoy nature, I even enjoy "boring" moments. Just the peace, the wind, the light of the sun between the trees, the sounds of the birds, that alone is enough for me, and often I get an extra in the shape of a deer or wild boar, etc. .......
    Thank you Morten for reliving recognizable wonderful moments while I sit at home. Even your sigh is recognizable when you came out of the forest.

    Morten - that was so amazing. I have loved this series but this one was so super special. Your quote - I really really love badgers, like a lot was so funny! The effort you put into making these videos with the cinematography and sound is quite phenomenal. You bring us into your world of wildlife photography and a love it. Like a lot!!!

    Hi Morten, this video was very exceptional. The colors, sharpness, clarity all on-point! Even for a moment I did not feel that I am watching a video. Instead it felt as if I am looking out an actual window.
    I feel this is the closest you have brought me to the nature around you. And this is why I watch your videos!

    I don't know why youtube recommended me this video, but I'm glad it did. I was searching for beech forest photography, cause they are everywhere around. But man, badgers?
    Deers and hares are plentiful here in Czech Republic, I've seen some boars, one from two meters jumping out of raspberry bush, I've seen three foxes in my life and one beaver. But I've never seen badger, only big footprints with long claws in the snow early in the spring.

  • @aerofart
    @aerofart 4 роки тому

    Morten, you probably know this better than I do, but I’ll mention it nonetheless for the benefit of anyone who might read this message. Your target Wildlife doesn’t need to sense your presence directly (through sound sight or smell) to know you’re there. Often times a target species will get its cues from other species. For example, those pesky birds always spot you from afar and sound the alarm as if they were getting paid to do it. This cross-species alarm cueing is probably what gave you away the first time. Also, I wonder if sometimes our equipment and gear emits frequencies beyond our capacity to hear it, but certain creatures hear a broader range of sound frequencies. That’s my take anyway. Nice to see you again. Great video as usual my friend.

As you always say, it is something special to be able to watch and photograph these animals on their terms. Keep the inspiration coming with your videos.

    Thanks to the lockdown, I've spent this year confined to my garden. So I decided to learn how to photograph wildlife. (Hence why I haven't uploaded any landscape videos)
    I am thoroughly enjoying the experience of observing and photographing the different species of wildlife around my local area. So next year, when I have gained more knowledge of wildlife, I am hoping to do some videos like yours.
    All the best Morten.
    I always look forward to your next episode.
