Lovely to see the chicks out with their parents learning about their new world. Thank you for the extra effort in finding the family and sharing the updates with us.
I look forward to your other videos and bee keeping adventures as your work is top notch.
Amazing that you take the time to go out and capture this footage of the chicks
Nature never ceases to amaze, nor do your videos. Your great scenes and narration are a joy. Thanks!
Great to see the chicks out enjoying the world! Also lovely to see a sped up version of the chicks growing up!
What a privilege it is to share life with these creatures.
I always get emotional thinking about how dedicated Mork and Mindy have been as parents. So commendable. It puts us humans to shame. Thank you Fion for taking us on this wonderful bluetit journey
It is ALWAYS worth a cheezy montage! Excellent season Fionn!
I'm super proud of our little blue tit family! Great filming! Thoroughly enjoyed this series. Thank you
Thanks so much for this update! It was so nice to see the chicks outside the nest box. I'm already looking forward to next season as well as your beekeeping adventure.
Lovely! Thank you for taking the time to create and post. We're all having nest box video withdrawal!
I can't tell you how excited I was for every update. What a wonderful series this is, and you have been a superb narrator through Mork and Mindy's journey. Thank you so much for sharing this with us.
Thank you so much for showing us the chicks out in the the big wide world. It hardly seems a moment that they were all in the nest, tiny and featherless and looking like they were all beak! I wonder if they will move further away in the spring so that they can find partners of their own, and whether the whole family will stay close by each other for the winter. Our Robin fledglings are looking great, I've just seen them this afternoon coming down for baths, they have more red on them each day, they are just beautiful. Unfortunately, we have a very sad little stray cat living in the corner of the garden, he has clearly had a very rough time of it and I'm sure he has been very badly treated by somebody, but we are trying to look after him and encourage him to trust us enough so we can get him into a box and take him to a vet or a shelter. I love all animals as I'm sure we all do so it really upsets me, but of course we aren't getting as many birds and that's one of the main things I love about the garden! "Mog" has started coming a lot closer so hopefully we can grab him soon and stuff him into a carrier of some sort and have our lovely birds back! Anyway I am really looking forward to your future wildlife and beekeeping ventures - good luck with all of it 😊
This has been an amazing journey. Thank you for bringing us along. Looking forward to the bees and 2022 nest season.
A most satisfactory end to what could have been a distressing season.Thats for letting us in on it.
Thanks Eddie as always !
I enjoyed this very much and learned from it, too. Thank you very much for your effort. I definitely will watch the next season next year 🐥👍
Lovely work with that camera of yours, Fionn. I think one day we shall see your name in the credits of a National Geographic program on television. I look forward to your beekeeping adventures. Cheers.
Thank you 😁 and thanks so much for watching 🙏😁
Fantastic. Really enjoyed seeing the chicks outside of their nestbox. Better than the Friends reunion, and without the 17 year wait.
Thank you for your filming and narrative, it was a fantastic ending. I felt the emotion of God’s creatures forging into the world. I look forward to next year! 👍
@JOETTE,
I agree, it was a great delight and JOY to view this superb video. I was quite surprised at how moving this video was.
👍🏼LOVELY job Fionn. All the best. (🇨🇦).
But I'm not ready for nesting season to be over. 😢 Thank you for the wonderful update you put together. 👏 and no overexposure!
It's sad every year when they leave 😅😢 thank you and thanks for watching 😁👍
good work man. keep up your motivation and patience
Thank you so much for sharing this little wonder with us. Who knew one could grow this attached to a small family of birds, thats so far away from ones own home. You did such a great job commentating their growth. I have learned plenty from you. And i cant wait to see more of your footage, that you clearly capture with so much love.
I continue to be amazed by how good Mork and Mindy were. Not just compared to the low bar set by Biddy and Miley but compared to all bird videos on TH-cam. I have little doubt they would have succeeded at any time in any weather. You found a real gem here. Thanks for taking us along for the ride.
There are so many 100s of baby birds at my feeders this year. We had the invasion of the 17 year cicadas during the nesting season so momma's and Pappas had an overabundance of food. Now we are swamped with lots of babies 🙂
I only fill my feeders once a week. Takes them about 3 to 4 days to empty them. Then they have to forage for a few days. Don't want these babies to be lazy and not learn how to forage.
Thanks for the wonderful videos. Will be watching the bees too!
Be blessed.
I just found these type of vids and watched them all in one night lol. This was so cool. I still wonder what happened to the 7th egg! But how great that all 6 survived! Can't wait for next year. I'll stick around for your bee keeping vids too,. I think that'll be interesting as well. 😊
Wow I just found your TH-cam Channel and I've been binge watching all your videos during my entire day off. KEEP UP the good work, I subscribe.
I loved this series, your videos are amazing! You deserve so many more subscribers
Thank you 😁 and thanks so much for watching 😁🙏
Loved the whole nest box series
Great to see an Irish nest box series 🇮🇪 thanks from swords Dublin.
Thank you from Cavan 👊🇮🇪 and thanks for watching 🙏😁
@@FionnODonoghue no worries looking forward to the next adventure 🐝
Bravo, I remember a flock of fledglings a good time on returning to my trees still.with the parents, older than these ones as they had more blue on their heads but still smaller and slimmer than the parents. Keep up the good work from your friend up North
Thank you 😁
This was such an enjoyable experience and I’m so thrilled you shared it with us. This was an extra special treat getting this little added part of the story! I look forward to more videos from you!
So glad you enjoyed :) thanks for watching
Oh this is so heart warming. I know I only had one little chick out of my nest box but I so so hope it is nearby with its parents today. I live with that belief. Thanks so much for taking the time to go out and look for them and filming them, it does give me comfort to know that it may be well. This is truly wonderful, thank you.
Great photography! Amazing to see them foraging for food and playing … hanging upside down on the branches of trees.
Excellent stuff again 👏
Great, great season. Thank you for the hard work!
Thank you for the update! Loved the background music, btw, very fitting
Thankyou for sharing …. Really enjoyed seeing them after leaving nest… great job 💞
Thanks for the videos. Loved this series. Good luck with the bee keeping - looking forward to it
Thanks for watching and glad you enjoyed 😁🙏
I see them feeding their chicks at my bird feeder. It's so sweet when the chicks flap their wings to beg food and the parents react to it!
That is a beautiful piece of equipment there! And the garden looks fab. I wonder if this is your home? You are a very lucky person. Thank you for sharing all these beauty with us.
I do live there yes :) thank you so much for watching 🙌😁
amazing series buddy...thoroughly enjoyed it....god bless you
Lovely little film, thank you!
Glad you enjoyed Sue 😁🙏
The cheesy montage was the icing on the cake!
Glad you enjoyed :)
Thank you for the footage, its always great to see where the chicks go after fledging and how the parents continue to care for them for a little while longer teaching them everything they need to know :)
Thank you Fionn for a great season and videos!❤️🥰 See you soon again!❤️
And yes, I dropped some tears with your cheesy montage.😅🥲🥰❤️ Thanks one more time! 👏👏👏
Thank you so much and thanks for watching 😁👍
Thank you for all your hard work to bring us this follow up - very informative too. Loved the shot of the parent and chick preening themselves on the swaying branch.
Great job Fionn. Thanks!
Exciting to see them living their lives. Thank you for taking the time to capture this. Chickadees travel around with nuthatches here in Alberta in winter. Tree to tree always on the move. 2 very different clutches this year for sure. Look forward to your beekeeping/nature videos in the future.
Thank you Stacee, Thank you so much for watching 😁🙌
I have really enjoyed watching all your videos and also really appreciate all the time and work you have done throughout the nesting process. Also, I thank you for allowing us to see the chicks in their natural setting. It must have taken quite a bit of your time. Its been such an amazing experience to be able to see them out of the nesting box. Much appreciated. I will certainly be tuning in to all your videos.
Thank you!
Well done. Is it best to put my bird box in more open space. This year I put in my pear tree and it's got.a lot of leaves in the tree. 👍
Somewhere they can see it is good ! in winter and early spring when they start looking there does be no leaves in the trees so I generally think the find them okay in trees :)
What a beautiful series Fionn , thank you so so much for sharing it with us , regards to the stars ⭐️ of the show 👍
I've been checking your channe everyday l since your last video hoping to see new vid and finally it's here.. Thank you...
Beautiful video, thank you 🐣🐣
They are soo cute. I've always been a bird person. No cats, dogs, bunnies... or horses are doing it for me. I always had an eye for the birdies. 🥰 When I visited my aunt who lived in the countryside, and had three horses, I loved the ducks the most and was always in shock when one of her cats brought a lovely wagtail home instead of doing their job with the mice. 😨
Oww dear cats can be a nuisance for the birds alright 😥 really glad you enjoyed the video 🙏😁
You are so good at filming!!!l Your work is so impressive you should have a spot on Animal Planet or some Wildlife Show!!! 😘
This is awesome! Keep up the amazing work. I hope your channel continues to grow!
Beautiful done vid!
Thank you :)
Oh and my baby black bird that was coming to me 4 and 5 times a day for food finally moved on about a week ago. I was quite sad about that, naturally, and I still call for it in the hope it will return but it's not to be. But today a new little baby blackbird arrived in the garden and so I spent an hour or more with that one this afternoon letting it get to know me and giving it food. Let's hope she's comes back tomorrow and spends a week or two while she grows and finds her feet. :D
At the age they are and staying in trees and not starving what predators do they face at your location?
Amazing ending to this series and thanks for the extra efforts finding them out in the wild
Will be staying tuned on your next projects
no 1 predator is cats
Thanks for the update
Excellent, mate! I will build a nest box too for wild birds, hoping to make it a home for Great Tits, which is what we have mostly here. I have already also selected a nice IPTV 5Mp h265 POE camera, which I need to buy locally too.
Let me know which model you go for looking at a few myself :) thanks for watching :)
Very Good
"The Big Boy Camera" lol. Great footage despite the technical challenges of lighting, keeping focus, locating the chicks.
Have you considered tagging the chicks in some way? Seems an impossible task, given then parents are never away for very long.
Hi Fionn, This is a lovely, unexpected treat! What is the name of the black and white bird at the beginning of your video? *Your filming, editing, choice of music and educational descriptions are superb Fionn!!!*
I REALLY enjoyed watching your video, THANK YOU ❣️. (🇨🇦)
Hi Susan 👋 that would be a pied Wagtail, lovely little bird that's always waging while walking feeds on insects etc, lovely little fellas 😁🙌 thank you so much for watching 😁🙏
@@FionnODonoghue
Thank you for responding so quickly.
When you lived in Canada, did you go birdwatching? I live in Ontario and there are several locations (ie. Point Pelee National park), where people from around the world come birding. I lived near Point Pelee (Leamington Ontario) and after or before work at the hospital, I'd go out to see the magnificent variety of birds. Spring and Fall were the best times.
Also I strongly recommend you Google the *Monarch Butterfly migration from Point Pelee* ... truly breathtaking!!
💗Take care, have a lovely week!
@@FionnODonoghue
Quick question again:
What's the difference between the Pied and White? Thank you.
I’d say you’ve earned a like for this video
We saw two chicks about a week after we stopped seeing the parents going in and out of the nest.
Just saw the chicks that one day and never again.
I cleaned out the box a couple of days ago and there was one dead chick in the nest.
This was our first year having the box up so we were pleasantly surprised that a pair took a fancy to it straight away.
I do hope the chicks survived.
We do have a resident magpie who was sniffing about.
We have stones in out garden and the chicks were almost impossible to see so🤞
We have a brood in our box every year. Occasionally see a chick leave but had no idea how they coped...thanks.
Nice video. Background music redundant if we wish to fully understand the interesting talking. Subscribed 👍🏼
Haha the music only there cause it's the cheesy montage 😅 the 2021 nesting series doesn't have music otherwise :) thanks so much hope you continue to enjoy 🙏😁
@@FionnODonoghue I guess the content you are spreading should be much above the music, which could be just point 1,5-2 out of 10, so that we can follow the experience you are sharing. Sorry for such long reply. Very good job. 🔆
It feels so nice to see their evolution, I loved this series
Also quick question: how do the chicks get water in the nest, di they gt I from the bugs they eat or what
That's exactly it ! they get it from all the caterpillars and insects that are brought it in ! Thanks so much for watching 😁🙏
@@FionnODonoghue your welcome, and thank you for giving me this information, and for having such an entertaining documentary, you're commentary made it so much more enjoyable :)
Thank you for all the blue tit video enjoyed, as I had an nest box and the neighbour's cat killed all the chicks.
I had some blutits in bird box. Now there out and now in tree trunk is this what happens they stay close to parents
Need a Montage of all the Fecal Sacs produced this year
Noted 🐦💩👀🙌
@@FionnODonoghue speaking of fecal sacs, at which point are they no more a sac, but more of a facal splat?
This is one of my favourite videos you have done. They are so unbelievably cute 😍
Did you ever check out the egg that didn't hatch?
I plan to in an upcoming Video :) Thanks for watching 😁🙏
@@FionnODonoghue the video of Biddy's leg getting stuck last season was suggested to me, so you've made it into the algorithm. I think it was suggested because I watch a lot of other Irish youtubers, I don't watch any bird channels.. well except this one now. Binged the whole 2021 season yesterday. I sent this video to my friend Sean from Cavan and asked if he can identify where you're from based on your accent, because I've heard that's a thing over there. He said you two went to the same secondary school! Small world, right?!
Small world indeed that is pretty cool ! 😁
btw: what for a cam did you use?
That's a Black magic Ursa a recent investment 😅
@@FionnODonoghue Wow!! Nice kit. DaVinci Resolve is amazing software...I would imagine their hardware is every bit as good.
Thank you so so much for your time and talent to do this it’s just wonderful 🐣🪶🐤
Thanks for the update
