Once again you don’t. Disappoint temperature is nuts !!!! Ya my number one rule is studying location,so you can be ahead of the wildlife!! Great Richard great viewing 👍
Thanks Craig, glad you think so and you enjoyed it. Yeah I totally agree and it's all about getting out there and doing your fieldcraft, more videos like this coming soon. Cheers R👍
Hey June, So lovely to hear from you again and thanks for watching the video, always a pleasure to take you along on another Canadian adventure. Cheers Rich 👍
Another lovely watch.Beautiful weather.Really looking forward to the arrival of the snow and the photos that you will take,which will add to your growing Canadian adventures.x🥰
Many thanks Mum, really glad you enjoyed it. The snow is very exciting and adds to the effect of the images, fingers crossed I will have some soon. M x
Beautifully done video, Richard, as always!! Nicely blended with the music too. I always love seeing your hawk footage! Well, the snow is well and truly with us now 🙂 I hope that berry tree works out for you. Cheers, Phil
Thanks Phil, Glad you enjoyed it and the flow of music and video, not all people enjoy music to the videos and sometimes I like to just use natural sounds, depends on the mood and setting I think. Appreciate the feedback. Fingers crossed it does my friend. R👍
Speaking of white pines days ago, those thin field trails you were on look like they might have maybe been used to plant white pines 4 or 5 years ago! Someone really knew what they were doing though with random non-rowed planting with giant spacing! It's long-term ideal for a sun loving pine that can go 140ft up with a horizontal reach of 50ft Just give them another 60-70 years and boom! Beautiful
Hi Richard wow what an amazing video the Broad wing hawk was truly fantastic, that is a brilliant place to go i know it can ben very challenging in a new area getting to know the area well as you have in the past, after visiting one place where I go have managed to find several places where the Kingfisher hunts and now see it every visit, that place where you are Rich will very productive so many different types of hawk there,truly an amazing video Rich thank you for sharing it with us.Martyn
Thanks Martyn, It really is all about getting out and finding new locations whether your in the UK or North America it's all the same. I always think it is half the fun just trying new locations as you never can tell what will turn up. R👍
20 below temp. Just a tad too cold for me Richard, but watching your vlogs Canada certainly makes up with it in a diverse species list. Learnt something new today about red squirrel's prompted by your video, didn't know they were a new world species - there's ignorance for you ! I Sorry I know it's a bit of a nostalgic thing but to me sporting the 1DX and prime lens it just shouts " Pro. Wildlife photographer - the real DB'S " !!! Once again love to keep in touch with what your doing over there, keep em coming. 👍
Hey Glenn, Yeah it's not an easy temp to work in but for the images it really does give some nice impact. They are lovely squirrels and not the same as ours in the UK, they lack the ear tufts here but still a lovely mammal to photograph. Yeah, I'm guessing that it shouts that, but not all Prime users are Pro's and the kit doesn't make you a good photographer, the person behind the lens does. Thanks again for watching, have a great week. All the best Rich👍
I wanted to ask what model of gimbal head this is? It's not likely to be listed under this video as it's not the Wimberly model. It looks very compact. I wonder how it performs with heavy lenses like the Canon 400mm f/2.8, or the Canon 500mm f/4?
Hi there, thanks for watching my latest video. It's a Fotopro Eagle series Gimbal Head E-7HS, much lighter weight than the Wimberly head which I have. It supports weight up to 20kgs and in the video it supports the 1DX MK III and a 500mm F4 prime and does the job well. I did a review on it below. th-cam.com/video/S0TH1EpgxhY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ItdyxSxM9RoVUCSJ Thanks Rich
@@RichardBirchett Thank you for the comprehensive information and the link. I am now using a Canon R3 with 400mm f/2.8 and 500mm f/4.0 lenses o both version one. Heavy, but I can see that the head should work well.
I've gotten to the point where I just started leaving the tripod at home. Kept taking it without using it. The one time I setup with a tripod at a wildlife management area, an entire field trip of school kids showed up and scared everything off. Since then I've been on a mission to reduce weight and stay mobile.
Makes sense Mike, shooting video for TH-cam and in 4K 30/60 usually requires a tripod support so a must for me there. Yeah, nightmare when loads of people turn up, hence why I like being where people are not, lol.. Cheers Rich 👍

Hi Richard, it's so exciting visiting a new wildlife area isn't it? All the best Steve.
Thanks Steve, always good to try a new place keeps it real. Rich
Cracking film, beautiful location and nest. All the best. 👍📷😎
Thanks Rob, appreciate you catching up on my videos. Top spot for sure and I will be back again when it's white! R 👍

Love it-that little nest, so delightful….looking forward to seeing those waxwings in the snow ❄️ xx
Thanks Wifey, it's great to be out looking for new subjects to photograph and that nest was lovely! Fingers crossed we do get to see them soon! x

Wow, some great info and what a nice place it was to visit! Hoping to get better on my tree ID. Yeah, be long gone by then! Cheers R👍
