So, what do you do when the weather report is rain, wind and cold temperatures (in the middle of summer!)... well, you pack your bags & go down the coast of course!
We had one full day so we packed it all in. Even though my knees of cheese weren't too happy... we saw so much in the Otways. Come with us on our weekend based around Apollo Bay and see all the amazing wildlife that popped up on our journey from rainforests, waterfalls to the rugged coast!
We hope you like this video!!

There was a bit of video experimentation with some new settings on my G9 for this video (we're trying to learn more & be a bit more creative). Some worked (which you will see) and some didn't (obviously not in the video!). But the highlight was filming the Olive Whistler in very dark light in the rainforest (and it turned out great!). Birds in summer are always a little less frequent so we're not getting as many photos lately but instead capturing more behaviour of the wildlife with video. Nimal is more handheld for photos & I'm always on the tripod looking for video. I think it ends up working out quite well 😀 Great team work!
Beautiful coastal scenery. Thanks for showing so much wildlife & wonderful birds
Thank you so much for watching! 😀
Lovely to see the Mother and baby Koala. Thanks
Weren't they adorable!! 🤩 We have plans to see more koalas (hopefully closer) in the next few weeks so that should be really fun!
Great video. Especially for folk a bit restricted in travelling, like me, so I’ve become an armchair traveler thriving on your great videos. Keep up the good work. I love them. ❤
Thank you so much! ❤ We will make sure to take you on lots of enjoyable armchair travelling this year! 😀
All the beautiful sights and sounds show the diverse world of wildlife. The koala with the little one was enough to call the entire trip a major success. Please keep up your excellent work and as always SAFE TRAVELS!
Thank you! ❤ The koalas were so lovely! We have plans to see koalas close up in the next few weeks (hopefully!!) so that will be really fun!! 😀
Absolutely beautiful! You've crammed so much into this video, I suppose it just shows of the endless diversity of nature in Australia. The moments you've captured with the little olive whistler was one of my favourites, but I can's forget about the koala mama and her baby and all the other beauties. + the fern world around the waterfall was just fairytalelike. Thanks for sharing all this and capturing it so beautifully.
Thank you so much! The Olive Whistler was such a highlight. It was a special moment....as was the koala & baby!! Oh my gosh.. how cute are they!! 😀
i love your videos - thank you. I live in Melbourne and have been doing trips similar to yours for wildlife photography. You have given me lots of trip ideas!
Thank you so much! 😀 There are so many wonderful places to visit for wildlife and birds in Victoria. We really have such amazing diversity in such a small state. The Otways were great & hopefully we'll get back there again soon. So glad that you're getting ideas from our videos & thanks so much for watching!! 😀 ~ Karen

I have just finished watching your Otways Trip video, lovely. After watching your Serendip video, a few of us went there last Wednesday. I got my first sighting and photo of a Crested Shrike-tit, so I was over the moon. It just flew into a dead tree for a few seconds then took off! Two of us got shots, the other three were not happy!
Awesome!! Those Crested Shrike-tits are fast & hard to photograph!! We didn't get any shots either so I know how it feels to miss out! 😀 I hope you had some nice weather at Serendip. It's a lovely place
🇨🇦🇱🇰❤️👍😍👌💓💯👏🙏
Great video love your casual approach, the Otway's is a great place keep up the good work, ps love my EM1X & 300mm f4 pro
Thanks so much! ❤ You must be getting some absolutely fabulous shots with that kit! Is it heavy to carry around??
Hi Guys the setup weighs in at 2.5kg that's a lot lighter than my 1DXII and 500mm f4, would send a couple of pics your way but cant do that on here. cheers Brian@@naturephotographychallenge
@@brianhoulihan9335 true! The 1DX looks super heavy! 2.5kgs is pretty good actually! 😀 I'd love to see some of your photos! You can email me at askboing@hotmail.com or do you post photos on instagram?
