Thankyou for your kind reply.

Agree.

Thanks Alan for your lovely comment. We've had a look at your Nightjar and you did well to get so close. We think we may have also have seen the Woodcock you mentioned which we think was visible in a ploughed field. If you want to see any more of our videos go onto www.youtube.com/@johnandpamhallwildlifevide5524/videos The pair of Woodcock we filmed was a chance sighting from the car and as you say was a once in a lifetime moment. Wonderful experience. Thank you again.

It’s comments like this from top photographers like you, that make it all worthwhile. Thank you Martin.

Thank you very much for your very kind reply.@@johnandpamhallwildlifevide5524

Hi, we are based in the UK and use a company in India www.vanasafaris.com. for all our bookings. The owner Avijit has ben in the travel business for many years and is very good. He should be able to help you or direct you for arranging bookings your self. Thank you for watching our videos.

Namaste and thank you.

Namaste. Thanks for your very nice comment. if you get chance have a trip to Zambia, I think you would enjoy it better than Kenya. Some nice stills on your TH-cam site. Shukria.

@johnandpamhallwildlifevide5524 thank you. Yes trying south luangwa. Hopefully find something that is within my budget. Showed my daughter your video and she is in awe. Thanks. These videos help us get through the humdrum of life.

Thanks for your comment, just wish we could afford to get back. Best place for Leopards and not full of package tourists. Brilliant.

Thanks for your comment.

Just practise, but you want to see all the bits we threw in the bin, we still,have to improve a lot.

Thanks that's a good comment.

Thanks for the nice comment. The footage shown is supposed to be 4k, but there is a lot of compression by TH-cam which does degrade it. Cheers and take care.

Namaste, we have had many good comments in the past on all our videos on India, yours however is the nicest and the best. Shukriya.

@@johnandpamhallwildlifevide5524 namaste, and you're welcome :)

Thanks for your watching and commenting on our video. Cheers

Thanks for your comment, I don't think we will ever get the chance of seeing the American Woodcock, which is a shame. Take good care, cheers.

​@@johnandpamhallwildlifevide5524I'm just glad they have a similar bouncy walk as their US counterparts, that's what makes me laugh. I know they're bigger but they tap their feet the same to bring worms, insects to the surface. Their funny walk is also involved in their mating dance.....

Thanks for your nice comment.

Nice to hear from you. The best forest Rest House is Dhikala but the other Rest Houses have their own charms. The only way we booked these was through an Indian Travel Agent. There used to be restrictions on how long you could stay. Also some Rest Houses don't have Restaurants so you have to take your own food. Please note that this was several years ago and things may have changed. We have videoed the Brain Fever Bird (Common Hawk Cuckoo) in one of our other videos on India. See "Tigers and other wildlife of Central India". Thank you once again for getting in touch.

It was a fantastic experience, the birds were about 10ft from the car. It was very foggy and when it cleared we then saw the beds. Thank you for taking the time ti comment.

Hi Steve, what a lucky person to live in Kanha. We been a few times over the years and used to stay at Shergarh with Katie and Jehan, but I doubt we will get back again. We used two video cameras both Panasonic GH3s, my wife dealing with the shorter lens 12-35 and me with 100-300. If we had to a grab a still we used a Panasonic LX7. Happy days with such wonderful sounds of the forest, the best we have ever heard. Can't beat the Racket Tailed Drongo. Cheers.

@@johnandpamhallwildlifevide5524 Thanks for the info John, we were spending upto 6 months in India at a time, how ever we normally stay for around 3 months recently, we now have medical issues where things will change, but so pleased we have enjoyed many Tiger Reserves in India, i was actually at one time a Driver in Kanha Tiger Reserve, a rarity im sure, i still have the Gypsy at my home on the Kisli side of Kanha, enjoyed your video’s and the Wildlife you have captured, thank you for your reply, we live in Shropshire England 👌

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it. it was hard work to do.

@@johnandpamhallwildlifevide5524 ...yes they can be hard work and alot of editing but you make it look soo easy

Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching.

Thanks fro your interesting comment.

Thank you

Thanks yet again for viewing the video. All our videos including more on Andujar can be seen www.youtube.com/@johnandpamhallwildlifevide5524/videos Take care and thanks again.

Thanks for your kind comment. As you are from Spain have you seen th-cam.com/video/oveHI49ADeo/w-d-xo.html covering northern Spain. Good luck with your interesting site.

Thank you for your kind comment.

Thank you for your kind comment.

Thanks for you very kind comment. you may wish to know that the camera used was a Panasonic GH5, with a Sigma 150 to 600 lens giving it 1200mm.

Thanks for your comment. The camera used was a Canon XL-H1 professional camera, using a 5.4-108 mm lens giving it a 20x magnification. This camera is no longer available.

Agreed, thank you.

Thank you

We are so pleased that you liked our video of your amazing part of Spain. We love not only Spring but every other part of the year. Can't wait to return.

Thank you for your lovely comments. We always recommend Casa Sarasa as the best location for covering this area and for the help and advice readily given in both English and Spanish. Perfecto.

Thank you for your kind comment. We hope you have a good trip but please consider that this video was from three visits in this area, also the best time of the year is spring. June is good for the flowers, but July/August is getting rather hot. We hope you have an excellent time.

Thank you for your excellent comment and good question. When I was a school boy ( in UK ) about 10 years old, the school library held all Jim Corbett's books. After reading them many times I always wanted to go to India. Africa has bigger wildlife parks with more mammals. Also in some parks it restricts the number of jeeps allowed at each sighting, while other jeeps just have to wait a while. But Africa does not have the fantastic bird song and sounds of the jungle. To us, at dusk the calls of the Long-tailed and Indian Nightjar cannot be bettered. Africa has the Lion but India has the gentleman of cats the Tiger. Incredible India.

@@johnandpamhallwildlifevide5524 well said. I hope you would come again to India for the love of the forests. Since you have seen most of the popular parks, I would love to suggest you to visit the terai forests of Northern India next time. I think you woild agree that the north indian forests in Corbett are richer in terms of natural beauty and diversity (which actually makes spotting of tigers and elephants harder because of the denseness). However, Corbett is still very touristy. Forests like Dudhwa NP and Manas NP are absolute hidden gems of India. Here you will find the richest and densest jungles with Rhinos, Elephants and tigers along with a good variety of birds (especially at Manas). Be assured that spotting would be rare, but the experience would be better for true jungle lovers, who are not there only to tick the checklist of seeing a tiger. You will hardly see two or three jeeps throughout a safari. Also, you can try the mangrove boat safari at the Sundarbans NP in Bengal, an UNESCO site, for a completely diffrrent and unique perspective of the Indian wildlife, with some salt water crocs and a very rare chance of encountering a tiger in the creeks. And we would, in return, be gifted with some amazing documentaries of these places...

@@kingshukchatterjee9756 How I wish we could get back to India, but unfortunately money and health do not allow. take good care.

@@johnandpamhallwildlifevide5524 sorry to hear that. Hppe thinga change soon. Take care

Thanks for your kind comment.

Martin that’s a really nice comment, very much appreciated.

Yes you are correct, they are young ones who are always play fighting. Cheers.
