Wonderful stills of the Dabchicks.
Best shots of a grebe that I've seen. I've made a few over the last two or three years but always at a distance. I watched one diving for crawfish in The Pond where I like to photograph birds. I didn't even know that pond had crawfish in it until the grebe came up with several with huge claws.
Mike, always a pleasure..........thanks
Haha, even wetter than a little grebe! Thanks for a great video, as always.
I cant explain the joy I get in watching your videos. Highly informative and entertaining.
Some great images Mike.
Brilliant Mike, great slow motion video and some great stills and the ending did make me chuckle 🤣🤣🤣
Wow such beautiful photos. Very interesting information as well. A beautiful little bird. Very different. Quite the parents. Life is so precious. Well done! Tysm 😎
Very cool!
Always enjoy your shows Mike! This is one of the best.
Beautiful video, great photos, Thank You For Sharing.
I like the the snorkel bit at the end Mike get you self a mini sub but camera work great as always 👍 👌
Brilliant video Mike i also love the stills,and you left your audience laughing again at the end.
Beautiful images and video of the Little grebes👍😀
Some nice views there. Agree about the skittish nature, but they are often inquisitive too. I've found they will sneak along, suddenly popping up to get a closer look at the strange person lying on the bank, and then disappearing again before you can lay a lens on them! And if you do get a shot its usually that rear end facing you.
Cracking images. Where I live, the Dabchicks on the country park pool are timid, though hundreds of people walk close by every day, but those on the canal/river are quite tame.
Wonderful photos and video and a great laugh at the end. There are sometimes Little Grebes on my local park lake, and I've seen them from as close as 1 to 2 metres! I've been filming them with my camcorder, but need to try some still shots now.
Stunning photography
Lovely work Mike , keep em coming ;)
Great video.Keep up the good work.
great video and nice shots
Amazing... Superb 👏🇹🇷👏
Enjoyed the video Mike,
Recently the boat trips have restarted organised by friends of the canal however probably paused during the recent lockdown events.
Another excellent watch. Very enjoyable indeed and even a ‘touch’ numerous! Do we get the out takes next ?
Beautiful stills and video. They look very much like our Australasian Grebe (a little darker) who also tend to always have their backs to you and are also very shy.
Love the stills taken at water level.
Get me my snorkel! Im going for it ! 🤣
Great information as always ty. I'm photographing and filming wildlife with my Nikon Coolpix P 1000, would appreciate if if you have any tips, I'm on a tight budget so don't say buy a better camera. Ty.
Floating hides are an interesting challenge but can be great fun. I find that is's hard to do sessions longer than two hours, even with a full drysuit. It just gets too cold.
very good . dont know when you took this (year) but we saw a tourist barge going up and down coiple of years ago but you said you dont see them now.
I have seen a barge once in many years of visiting.
You are truly the James Bond of wildlife photography, Mike! Great stuff, thank you :) What time of year will you see chicks? Is that April/May, or do they have several broods?
They can have several broods right through to August.
As always, a very worthwhile video. Sorry the crocodile got you before you took that shot.
