A Tree Species that Arrived by Itself
มุมมอง 290หลายเดือนก่อน
With our Puangiangi restoration project, it's not just birds that can arrive without help. Now a tree species has performed the same trick. It's easily explained, but cool nonetheless. This video is a companion piece to the other ones about the regeneration of the forest on the island: th-cam.com/video/XfP7LJTpC-U/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/RX9ixKhdcx0/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/OTQgp9ndYNk...

Karearea/ NZ Falcon Nest- a Brief Glimpse
มุมมอง 412 ปีที่แล้ว
The karearea pair on the island usually nests in the same place, and I put my old Ltl Acorn camera on a stand near the nest. These little videos show three very healthy chicks; I don't know exactly how old they are, but the eggs had not hatched on 15 December, a month before. Three is unusual. We did not see the male parent and the female did well to feed this large clutch by herself. As well a...
Kakariki Nest, Laying to Fledging, 72 Days in 18 Minutes
มุมมอง 4612 ปีที่แล้ว
A complete nesting record for a pair of kakariki/yellow-crowned parakeet in a nesting box on Puangiangi Island, Cook Strait, New Zealand. We are trying to reintroduce kakariki to the island and starting in 2013 we have translocated more than 100 wild-caught and captive-raised birds. The next year or so will be critical to the success of the project. Read more about the restoration project as a ...
Sooty Shearwater Nesting, Puangiangi Island, New Zealand
มุมมอง 332 ปีที่แล้ว
This series of videos shows a sooty shearwater nesting burrow from the inside. The birds came back to their burrow probably in late October, then went away to sea again for a month or so. During that time I installed the camera. They came back on 25 November. I first saw their single egg on 28 November and it was due to hatch around 20 January. The egg was seen broken and empty on 15 January. S...

    Hi Barry, great video, very informative. Love your little Robin-sidekick as well. Greetings from Motueka

      Thanks Daniel. At least the robin did not jump on my head and try to pull out my hair, which has happened at that site in the past.

    Great work Barry. Interesting to see the night time feeding. How active are the parents at night compared to the daytime? I always thought they slept all the time.

      Hi Andy- they really only fed in the hour or so before dawn and after dusk. The adult robin are normally the second bird to start singing in the morning after the bellbirds, which are a great alarm clock. I went through 2500 30 second videos to compile this clip and I have probably used a disproportionate number of night videos as they were so much sharper with the separate lens dedicated to IR illumination. The colour videos in low light were pretty noisy so mostly you only see colour ones in the middle of the day. That said, the trail camera is still a good tool and for its size and low power consumption is impressive.

    That is superb. So much learnt by Barry having the patience to review several weeks of footage
