New Year's 2024: Birding Michigan's Upper Peninsula

My new year's resolution is to do more birding in 2024. I started the year in Michigan's Upper Peninsula looking for some northern Michigan specialties like Spruce Grouse and Bohemian Waxwing. There were a lot of winter finches around as well. A great way to start the year! Please like and subscribe to the channel if you would like to see more videos like this.

Outstanding video! I haven’t been to the EUP yet this winter and your video has me missing it. Super footage!

Man did I have the bird for you hanging around for 2 days. It was a Varied Thrush, Yes a Varied Thrush and I would have loved for you to catch a photo.

That’s an incredible bird and I would have loved to capture it! I do prints too and I could have printed one for you. Maybe next time!

Wonderful birds ! no crime in leaving some seeds for them perhaps, since they give so much of their beauty. Thank you.Montreal Quebec.

By the way, how many Pavlik birders are there in Michigan?!?! 😂

[@pavlikphotographyproductions]

Enough to be dangerous ;)

[@omar2569]

do you use a tripod for the bird videos? if so which one. also close your car door lol don't want a bear running in there

[@pavlikphotographyproductions]

I’m using a Feisol CT-3442 but I do not recommend it for video. It’s not very stable at all and the slightest bump makes it move around. I’m looking to upgrade. I also use the Manfrotto 502AH but I’m looking to upgrade that too.

Also, the bears are hibernating Omar. It’s the Moose you have to watch out for ;)
