A Documentary on the beautiful birds and wildlife of Tasmania’s wilderness areas.
Includes rare footage of the endemic Scrubtit and many other species of the Apple isle.
This short documentary documents our recent trip to Tasmania. My ambition was to find and film as many bird and mammal species as possible and our time here did not disappoint.
My original intention was to make a short film about the charismatic and endemic Scrubtit but as the timeline developed, I decided to add a splash of other species into the documentary.
Our journey takes us through pristine habitats, searching for the incredibly diverse birds and Mammals of Tasmania. The forests are delightful and present as a storybook with Tree ferns and moss covered logs.
Tasmania is also home to a number of endemic bird species that cannot be found anywhere else on earth.
Eventually, our 3 week adventure will be documented in a 3 part series covering an impressive array of species and of course the wonderful habitats that they live.
Please comment and let me know what you think.

This is one of the best documentaries I have ever seen, simple, calm and just beautiful and peaceful! Many thanks
Wow, thank you! This was also one of my favorite Documentaries to make. I hope to cover more of Tasmania in the future. Such a special place.
I hope so too, I just moved here and the nature is absolutely incredible. I can’t wait to explore more of the island.
Absolutely beautiful documentary on my favourite place to visit. Thank you for sharing, great work
Glad you enjoyed it! Thankyou for your kind words. Tassie is wonderful.

Such beautiful birds.
Beautiful video, Tim!
Many thanks Michael.
Lovely doco and beautifully narrated. Many thanks
Very much appreciated.
Love to live in tassy one day.
I understand why !
What a fantastic documentary! Would love to see more of this content for tassie and other parts of Australia
More to come! The documentaries take a while to build but I have a lot of material for Tassie, among other regions.
So beautiful, I really want to go to Tassie one day. You are an amazing cinematographer, no doubt national geographic worthy.
You must go. It is a wonderful experience. Your kind words are very appreciated.
Amazing, thank you for sharing.
Very welcome, glad you enjoyed the production.
Fantastic video @timsiggs. I was supposed to be working this morning, but spent 12 minutes watching this instead! I love Tassie. It has been too long since I visited. Your video has inspired me, I must go back. Thank you for your fine work. 🙂
I really appreciate your feedback. Tasmania is a wonderful destination and I would love to return also.
Impressive work.. thank you
Very much appreciated. It was fun to produce.
Thanks for the olive whistler footage.
You are dead right. I've been listening to them for years but never knew what it was.
You are welcome. Those Whistlers are so skilled and powerful.
Nicely filmed.
Thankyou.
Brilliant video mate.
Thanks so much.
What a beautiful documentation of our wonderful state, well done! I very much enjoyed putting a few faces to the songs :))
Glad you enjoyed it! Tassie is a goldmine and I hope to produce a full length version of this one day.
@@TimSiggs well when you do, i'll surely be watching it!
Wow, looks like 4k to me. Great work.😎🐧🇦🇺👌
Thanks so much.
Great work Tim, loved it. Beautifully filmed and narrated, well done mate, looking forward to seeing more. Cheers Phil
Thanks heaps Phil, I can aspire to you great heights!!
Wonderful photography luv Tassie❤
Me too, what a place!
This is really nicely shot. Congratulations!
Thanks so much. It was a joy to produce. I have other Tassie productions planned.
Well done Tim, you've done such a great job here with this compilation! I'm looking forward to visiting the southern end of Tasmania shortly.
Thanks so much, we had a blast. I hope the weather is kind to you.
Love!❤👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Absolutely stunning. I live in Canada, was born and spent childhood in NZ. Loved the bush in this. The birds are different, yet some are very similar. I've never been to Australia despite living so close (but that was many decades ago when people did not buzz around the globe like they do now). Thank you for this video. Gorgeous.
Glad you enjoyed it and I appreciate your kind words. I am going to visit Canada one day to see friends.
Very nice video also 😊
Thanks a lot 😊
@@TimSiggs Subbed 👍. Reason I'm here, I went for a walk the other day along an old railway here in tas, maybe 3 kms in thick bush land and recorded a video on my phone while i was there. Came home, had a joint, played the video and was absolutely amazed at the sounds the birds were making ( maybe 8 all singing away at the same time ) and i thought wow...these little creatures are absolutely amazing! Then i thought what a weird quiet world it would be without them. This was 2 weeks ago and now I'm fascinated. I've always appreciated the sounds while waking through the bush but I've never really actually listened. It blew me away just how special the little guys are.
And you're video's are very nicely done, clear and easy.
Thanks 👍
Nicely put together and really great footage! You have a very fitting narrator voice, too.
I very much appreciated your kind words. The narration is the hardest part.
Outstanding. Beautiful, clear cinematography, really showcasing these lovely birds. Really nice work.
Very much appreciated Vanessa. It was an incredibly beautiful location and the birdlife was outstanding.
The cinematography on this was superb! Thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it! Very much appreciated.
Amazing, thank-you so much for sharing your knowledge talent and video, beautiful magical awesome life.❤️🐦🪶
Very much appreciated, I love to get this kind of feedback.
I am going to remove this as it has rendered in 1080 despite showing 4k.
Great, it seems to have corrected itself and is appearing in 4K
Hey Tim, great video! FYI Once you upload to TH-cam they process your video and automatically create copies at different resolutions. You’ll usually have almost instant access to a 720p version and then takes time to process higher resolution versions.
In my experience it can take up to 24hrs for a 4K version to become available.
Hope that helps!
Sorry that I did nit reply to this and thanks for your advice.@@loicleray
@@TimSiggs All good! Thanks again for sharing the vid. =)
This is an awesome documentary. So soothing to watch and listen to. I watch it with my free flying parakeets. They perch on the blinds rod and watch, responding to the calls and songs of the birds in this video.
Lovely footage. We're heading down in Oct/Nov and I hope to capture a good selection of wildlife and birds while there.
Best of luck. If you have the weather, you will be in luck for sure.
Thank you for creating this wonderful and inspiring documentary!
You are welcome and I'm pleased you enjoyed it.
Amazing documentary. The narrating and cinematography complemented eachother like honey and chocolate. I thoroughly enjoyed it, thanks Tim!
Thank you so much. I really enjoyed producing this. Tassie is a wonderful destination.
It looks spectacular
Fantastic work ol’mate 🤙🏻
Thanks 👍
Hi Tim, good work and fantastic footage of the Tasmanian birds, mit easy to do! WE meet yesterday watching the wallcrepper...

Outstanding
Thankyou, my favorite Documentary so far.
Beautiful, stunning photography of some special birds, fantastic!
Thankyou for your kind words. I loved making this documentary and many more to come.
Another excellent production Tim.
Much appreciated mate.
You captured it all beautifully. Great camera work and quality is perfect. Thank for putting it together for us to enjoy. I'm a birder in Florida and most likely never be able to visit Tasmania but your documentary gave a nice overview of Tasmanian nature, birds and wildlife, loved it. Thanks 😊
Much appreciated Thomas, I hope you do get to go. I hope to visit Florida in the next couple of years.
Brilliant!! stunning quality, im really looking forward to seeing all your other work, I think I've found a hidden gem! (your TH-cam channel!)
Thanks so much for your kind words. I have a lot of content on line and am developing some cool documentaries. You might like th-cam.com/video/jD5uqC8uw54/w-d-xo.html
Fantastatic, Tim... thank you. I was surprised to recently learn how many colourful birds Australia has on the world stage. And that is emphasised here will a brilliant display of Tassy birds. I am from QLD.
Many thanks for your kind words. Yes, Australia has to be one of the best destinations for birds. Tasmania is epic as it is so different to other states.
Beautiful film and great birds!
Much appreciated
Thanks!
Thankyou so very much. More to come.
Absolutely beautiful documentary! Thankyou for sharing!! Im a tassie local and you’ve inspired me to start birdwatching 😁
Thankyou for your kind words. I hope you continue to be inspired in your wonderful Tassie.
Fantastic footage as usual Tim, I enjoyed a brief trip to Tassie over 20 years ago myself, only wish I had had more time to see more of it. Those shots in the forests are marvellous in low light and needing lots of patience too. Those scrubtits act just like Tree creepers here in the UK although filming them is much easier as they are not quite as timid. Thanks for the upload, David.
Thanks so much. Yes, persistence and patience definitely required but an awesome place that gives results. I am also familiar with the Treecreepers, cool birds.
Stunningly beautiful! So appreciate the time and effort you put into these amazingly educational avian docos. Looking forward to a birding vaca in the near future. Cheers.
Thanks so much for your kind words, glad you appreciated the documentary.
Always Awesome Tim!!!!
Appreciated as always.
A marvellous account of our State and fauna. Thank you.
Thanks very much. You live in a wonderful place and I hope to return.
Brilliant, thankyou!❤
Very much appreciated.
Hi Tim, thank you for this well made video. May I ask where in Tasmania these beautiful bird photos were taken?
Many thanks. We traveled from Hobart across to Strahen, up to the North Coast and down the East Coast. Was there a particular species you wanted to know about?
Really impressive and excellent quality, Tim. I'd have two questions for you: How long did you stay there? And, do you film the birds out in the open or were you using your car as a hide? Thanks
Thanks so much. For this trip, all the footage was was on foot, just walking, listening and finding the birds. It was a 24 day trip.
Stunning❤
Many thanks.
Fantastic pictures! Are there any raptors on the island?
thankyou. Yes, indeed there are plenty of Raptors.I have a lot more Tasmanian content which includes the Raptors. I'll get to publish it one day !
how many species of robins? may you make a document video of them...
That would be a great subject. Many species in Australia alone.
D0 you have a video of the buff banded Rail pls? 😅
