what is your favourite tree tarantula? Leave a comment and let us know, have a chat with us in the comment section and enjoy other videoa on our youtube channel :)
Seeing a poki in a natural setting is so much more interesting than via a video taken by some guy with lots of money who's never been further "outside" than the perimeter of his/her garden, bragging about how experienced they are with tarantulas.
Another legend job bro- love your species info in vids! In this year I will go to Srilanka... cmon i have to see wild subfusca :D What camera and lens do you have? Great, sharp zoom close ups.
I learned the poecilotheria Subfusca has two forms. Highland and lowland form. The one that you captured on film is the lowland form, Aka Poecilotheria Bara.
Vortex 220 the one that I filmed here is the highland form, living above 1600 meters above sea level. There is another species indeed, the "lowland" form, which lives around 400 meters above sea level and grows significantly larger
Thank you for this interesting, informative and educational video. It is very nice to watch these tarantulas in their natural living space, other than in captivity. So often I ask myself if these plastic containers, glass or acrylic enclosures are not way too small for them, in which they have to live. Maybe they don‘t need a lot of space bc they are ambush predators for example, but a life in a shoe box could not be very satisfying - not either for a spider, I think. Or am I completely wrong? I am very afraid of spiders but I love to watch tons of videos about them bc they are so fascinating. A few months ago I didn‘t know that there are tarantulas in blue, pink, purple and so on with all these patterns... I love it.😍 Just subscribed and go on with your amazing work.👍🏼😊
what a comment! Thanks a lot for your interest :) as you state correctly, tarantula spiders are ambush predators and therefore do not need a lot of space to feel comfortable. So yes, a shoebox might actually be a very good house, in case that shoebox offers them protection, a dark hide and the right temperature. It's difficult to explain and a lot of people do not want to understand this, as they always think about how much space their cat needs fot example :) all in all, tarantulas are very good pet animals, as they are totally fine with living in tight places, as they prefer it anyway
Why so low number of views? This is amazing! You deserve millions of views! Just stunning species on your channel and quality of the videos are amazing! Good luck and keep up the good work man! Greetings from Croatia 😊😊😀
It's hard to get started here on youtube - but I hope persistence is key and somewhen more people will visit :) Thanks for your kind words! Great to have you onboard
another quality video! thanks for sharing your experience! I'm particularly interested in wild tarantula behavior and want to see whats different to captive tarantula, can you cover more on that side? things like communal behavior, hunting, diet, temperament, defense etc are pretty interesting to see. looking forward to your next video!
Great to hear! Will try to cover that and let you know, check out the Coremiocnemis hoggi video, where I cover some behaviour difference between wild specimens, as they are very friendly and calm
I am not a big fan of poecilotheria, due to the over hype of them in the hobby. However, after watching this video. I think I may have just over looked the hype and will be buying a few. They actually look amazing! Thanks for these videos!
@@birdspiders btw. my little advice, you can show more vievs and shots and the same time talking to us. Like this video will be more curiose, Thank you😉
Chocking how small that last female where if she really is an adult. I don't keep Poecilotheria spp. myself but I get 5 Poecilotheria sp. lowland this week
it is not strange, as wildlife is protected in many countries around the globe. Poecilotheria species got smuggled a lot a few years back, thats why we all are having these as pet tarantulas now. Forest rangers seeing you searching for tarantulas brings you in big trouble in Sri Lanka and other countries, as they don't distinguish between "research and personal pictures" and "smuggling and stealing spiders"

Poecilotheria subfusca of course.
THIS....
Avicularia purpurea

Please keep making videos these will be so successful Tarantulas are becoming so popular
May I ask what kind of camera you are using for the close spider shots? Absolutely stunning quality and what a beautiful spider! Thanks for sharing!
thanks Paul! Using a Canon 200D with some macro lenses, like the Canon 60mm
Second time I’ve visited cause I love seeing these tarantulas in their native environment. Yes, even though the tree wasn’t native, lol.
thanks for watching Robert
Incredible work. Lovely footage 👌
Another legend job bro- love your species info in vids!
In this year I will go to Srilanka... cmon i have to see wild subfusca :D
What camera and lens do you have? Great, sharp zoom close ups.
amazing species :-) my favorite Poecilotheria species for sure!
I use a Canon 200D and some small macro lenses, nothing special or that expensive
@@birdspiders even more than the metallica?!
Nice to see the animals natural habitat.. Make them even more pretty
One of the most beautiful tarantula. Love it!
Thanks hermano :-)
Stunning adult female and the habitat looks fantastic there
Thanks mate! :)
Gorgeous spiders, love Pokies.
Stunning female specimen at the end there. Thanks so much for showing us this amazing footage!!!
Very cool video my friend, I’m confused at them not liking us wanting to protect the tarantulas, why is that?
I am seriously enjoying your videos! There's not nearly enough information on tarantulas in their natural habitat. Feel appreciated, because you are.
Thank you so much!
Beautiful colour action on the female. Quality filming again.
yes a very nice colored specimen for sure, we were lucky :)
What a coïncidence, just got my subfusca yesterday.... They are so pretty... Awesome video like usual...
hands down the prettiest pokie
The adult female is amazing. She is gorgeous. Thanks for sharing another great video.
Thank you Brian! She has truly amazing colors
Now we have a picture in our minds of what habitat these creatures hail from Thanks to YOU. Great work and much appreciated!
I would love to see metallica in the wild.
Adam's Tarantulas we too!
Yup. You can go to Andhra Pradesh to find that
Good luck finding one, they are critically endangered
Yes,,agreed,,👍

@@birdspiders I must've read it wrong, I thought the lowland form had more white on the carapace.
Wow! an absolutely stunning T!. Thank you so much for sharing that with us lad! Mother nature truly makes the best artwork!
Hoping you come here in Philippines to find our beautiful tarantula orphaneous sp philipinus.
Great video 👍
Thank you!

SHADOW DENNIS I’ve been saying the same for ages he should be the biggest tarantula channel on TH-cam for his content alone
Wow, what amazing detail on these tarantulas, never noticed so much before. Fantastic footage, thank you so much, kindest regards, Joanne 🐺

Amazing video.
I really like their tiny feet 😍 it's so cute!
That male is gorgeous!
it is! But I prefer the vibrant colors of the female :)
What an amazing species ❤
I am not a big fan of poecilotheria, due to the over hype of them in the hobby. However, after watching this video. I think I may have just over looked the hype and will be buying a few. They actually look amazing! Thanks for these videos!
Blood Eagle 88 not really, but as my comment said I was goingto get one.. I did.. I now own one!! Female too!!

Simple Appreciation awesome! have fun!
10:10 Very nice color ! OMG!
Beautiful
indeed :)
@@birdspiders btw. my little advice, you can show more vievs and shots and the same time talking to us. Like this video will be more curiose, Thank you😉
He looks like the actor of hunger games
10:24 Gorgeous. Especially the yellow designs on its legs. Your videos have captivated me.
thanks AtomicPlayGirl! :)
Sir, may i ask is this species venomous, and if so can it be lethal Thank you
yea they are venomous, but not lethal to humans - all spiders are venomous, no worries, it's no threat to humans
Chocking how small that last female where if she really is an adult. I don't keep Poecilotheria spp. myself but I get 5 Poecilotheria sp. lowland this week
yeah, that is the smallest Poecilotheria species. They are indeed adult at this size. Habe fun with your new additions :)

Better word for tickle is coax lol
You are officialy the fourth person that my iPhone recognizes when „hi Siri” (or something that sounds similar) is being said
yeeehaaa! mission accomplished :))
birdspidersCH well thats kinda funny because Petkos voice works too XD
Finally a video of this species in the wild and not in some glass/plastic prison in some fools basement.
Wow that female looked like she was painted
10:12. What is song playing?
Do the locals call the police because they're worried about poachers?
Yes, they do
very handsome man ......^^
Gorgeous male
What stories have you heard about the police and people looking for tarantula in Sri Lanka I’d love to hear.
I can cover this in an upcoming video, thanks for your input!
🤟🤟🤟
what a beautiful species! the females look like they are wearing make up..
most beautiful Poecilotheria in my opinion :)
Why do the locals not like if a foreigner is interested in there spiders ? It seems very strange to me .
it is not strange, as wildlife is protected in many countries around the globe. Poecilotheria species got smuggled a lot a few years back, thats why we all are having these as pet tarantulas now. Forest rangers seeing you searching for tarantulas brings you in big trouble in Sri Lanka and other countries, as they don't distinguish between "research and personal pictures" and "smuggling and stealing spiders"
birdspidersCH ok that makes sense .
So you had a 50% tarantula tickle rate.
on camera or off camera? ;-)
birdspidersCH yes.
Wow. So amazing bro,i love your content
Leider gibt es im Hobby keine reinrassigen Tiere mehr!
Can’t be 17 degrees, that’s below freezing
degree celsius :)
Didn't even see the first specimen on the tree that's how their colours are 🤯
wow such a great video, thank you for sharing.
