What a great day, Ash! Funny how things turn out when you just relax into the day & just "go with the flow" as they say. Really good to see the water rail, and that footage of the barn owls was fantastic too! I'm looking forward to watching part 2 of the Cairngorms when it comes out. Take care buddy! 😊👏👍
Cheers Russ, yeh turned out ok in the end, you see photos of on Facebook groups etc, showing the owls, kingfishers, Marsh Harries, etc and it sort of makes you want to go, there, then you go and nothing shows up it like 😯, but then in those last two hours everything just appears all at once, a great day out in the end. Yep just loading the car now and heading off looking forward to a great trip thanks, take care, and see you on the next one 👍
Hi Ashley, another great video, I love Martin Mere, it has such an abundance of wildlife and is well kept. Top footage and love the Barn Owl on the fence post, that type of shot is on my list 😊 see you on the next one Mate 📸
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it, just a quick trip out, needed to take some photos of animals, done nothing but take photos of people for two weeks, animals are easier 😂😜
Another great video and images Ashley. When you couldn't remember the name of the Geese/Duck, just made me laugh. As you get older, the old grey matter starts to go. I'm the same, and I'm 70 this year 🤷♂
Great vid Ashley never seen a water rail thanks for that hopefully I will remember it if I see it ! Really chuckled about the bleeding geese ( shell ducks ) 👍
cheers @shauncraffey3580 glad you liked the video and got something out of it, yeh i thought I would leave that part in about the shell ducks just keeps it real lol 😅👍
Hi Ashley, another top video 📸 I love Martin Mere, it has such an abundance of wildlife and is well kept 👍🏽 top footage, I love the Barn Owl on the fence post, that type of image is on my list 😊 see you on the next one Mate 👍🏽📸
I would love to visit a big hide like this! I wish we had one like it close by. My God, the reflections of the birds in the water were extraordinary! What a fine job you did with them. And your video of the Barn Owl was superb. I really enjoyed seeing them. Thanks for a great video. Just found your channel. I'm a birder in Florida and am now learning photography.
Hi @junebug1553, welcome to my channel and thank you for subscribing, I am glad you enjoyed the video. yeh, starting out photographing birds was a big learning curve for me, not so much the photography but the birds them selves and trying to identify them. shame you don't have a hide near you, perhaps if you got together with other local photographers you could come up with a plane to create one somewhere. Anyway lovely to meet you and al;l the best. Ash 👍
Stunning flight shots of the lapwings, beautiful scenes. And, patience and persistence paying off in this video. Absolutely gorgeous. It's great you're making a studio. Will you still be able to look out to your livestream? So looking forward to another on the Cairngorms. You spoil us, Ashley.
Hi @joan and family hope your all well, many thanks for the comment, yeh I will stall have the bird feeder live stream, and hopefully, I might get some birds in the bird box cam this year.
Hi Alun, yeh it is a new feature at the Kingfisher Hide, to the right where the feeders used to be, the birds are still a bit cautious about it so I stood well back with my tripod and they came in fine, as soon as you or other people go near the window/opening they fly off.👍
Barn Owls are probably the best and photogenic bird in the UK. For, me anyway.😊 While you were at the Wetland Centre I took my first my first ever trip to the Mach Loop for birds of a different kind.😀
@@WildlifePhotographerUK I went down with Stephen on Wednesday, and had 4 opportunities. The Lakes and Scotland got most of the action. For my first ever attempt at military aircraft, in the wild, I was pleased to get a Texan with a blurry prop. Many of the regulars told me they were still trying to achieve that effect. I think, I’ve caught the bug now. 😀

Great vlog as always, I do love Martin mere, but I’ve never seen the reflection pool, where have they put that,

@@WildlifePhotographerUK fantastic, I will just have to remember which hide is the kingfisher hide
@@alunlambert7456 its the one before the Ron Barker hide on the left as you walk down, you have to walk up the steps to reach it.
@@WildlifePhotographerUK Fantastic, thank you

Hi Frank, ahh great stuff how was it I might make a trip there this summer.
