- Perfect for the casual birdwatcher, or someone wanting an idea of what birds you can find on a typical visit.
In this episode we visit the Blue Mountains and surrounds. Only 45 mins from Sydney,.
Some of the birds we see include Regent Honeyeater, Eastern Spinebill, Fan-tailed Cuckoo, Golden Whistler and many more.
Filmed and photographed with a Nikon Z9 and a 400 MM f2.8 lens, with iPhone 15 used for wide shots.

Gosh, what a fantastic vid. Very enjoyable. All great, especially pleased to see the Regent Honeyeater up close and personal.
Thank you Gil. It was a lot fun putting this one together, especially the Regent Honeyeater footage
I love watching your videos. I must say this one is best among all...
Thank you, that is lovely feedback.
Australia has so many beautiful bird species that gives one so much scope for the imagination. Thankyou for the insight to these Aussie birds in this part of NSW😎👏👍
We are quite lucky here with all our unique birds.
That mist in the Blue Mountains look so cool!
Thank bro, love me some inverted clouds
This makes me yearn for the bush. Thanks also helped me with some small bird IDs.
We are so lucky to have such amazing hiking trails, with incredible flora and fauna.
Another wonderful video!!
Thank you ☺️
Really wonderful photography and content!
Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment
Wonderful
@@MrBerry67 thank you
Great video
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it
Great video! loved the footage of the golden whistler
Thank you! If you haven’t already watch my Lord Howe Island video, some sweet Golden Whistlers in that one
Good stuff as always Roger
Thanks Ian
Love the honey eaters.
Me too, but I do have a soft spot for the gang-gangs.
Great find and footage of the Regent! Aren't we lucky to have so many honeyeaters ❤
Thank you Sonia, as soon as I head there was one in the suburbs I had to go and see it
A great video. Your bird trip videos are so helpful. Watching in the UK. 👍
Thank you ☺️, nice to have watchers from the outside of the world. One day I’ll get over there and photograph some Uk birds .
Love your videos, mate!
Thanks a ton!
Thank you for capturing and sharing it, especially those far from Australia.
Thank you, glad I can bring a little bit of Australia to your home.
@@RogerMacKertich I am coming to Australia in November first time and want to do the birding in the Sydney area, Can you please suggest neat by place good in November for birding and local guide
Nice video, thanks for sharing
Thank you
Your videos are really nice
Thank you ☺️
Howdy ! I love birds and I use a Nikon p1000 with a tripod . You can get so close that the birds feathers look ike lace . With a lower end 4K resolution , I'd highly recommend it to anyone shooting birds : )
This is an excellent camera that is portable and has great zoom.
Singapore 🇸🇬 has the Olive-backed Honey Sucker, otherwise known as the Garden Sunbird.
I did a video in Singapore a few months ago, check it out there are a couple of sunbirds in it.
The Golden Whistler resembles the Cinerious Tit found in Hong Kong SAR.
Yes, similar profile
Great video mate, tomorrow I’m going to try my luck and find that honeyeater!
Thank you, the Regent has moved on to other parts of the state. But you should find most of the other birds in this video.
Excellent footage and narrative, thank you!!
A bit of audio leveling could make this an even better documentary. If the music were down ~6dB, the calls and your insightful narrative would remain in "focus". Thanks again, and cheers from North Carolina, US.
Thank you for the helpful feedback. For most of the bird videos there is actually no calls, just wind noise or people talking, so music is necessary to make it ‘interesting’. I will drop the volume in future videos though (maybe 😉)
Forgot i was on youtube..that was some serious production values... You have to do a gear video.. your skills are pro level 😅
Thank you for the lovely feedback. I have made a point of my bird videos to completely avoid being a ‘talking head on travel’ or doing anything gear related. Even though those sorts of videos get lots of views there are plenty of excellent channels out there with great information, I would just be talking about the same stuff.
@@RogerMacKertich yeah.. lots of them.. out of curiosity what camera and most frequent lens you use 😆
Hey Roger! another awesome birding video. Next year I will be coming to Australia in June and touring Sydney, Alice Springs, Cairns, and all of the areas surrounding those towns. I'll be spending about 2 days in Sydney and 1 in the blue mountains. Do you have any recommendations on places to go around Sydney to see the most amount of different types of birds and get the most photo opportunities? Thanks a ton for making these videos. They are super helpful!
Thank you. That sound like an amazing trip. Honestly with only 2 days in Sydney I would probably just go to the Botanic gardens in the CBD. There are quite a number of our popular birds there, Kookaburra, Cockatoo, rainbows lorikeets, cormorants, waterhens and more. Plus you will be near the opera house etc, so worth visiting.
Can I suggest that you check the Blue Mountains national park website beforehand - only because a large number of the most popular walking trails have been closed over the past couple of years, predominantly due to landslides and the like from wet weather. At least you will know what is open and what isnt
It’s called, Lyre Bird. Not ‘Li’ bird.
Definitely Superb Lyrebird, a beautiful bird
