Just discovered this channel, such a wide variety of bird life close to the city. We really are lucky in Australia.

Whip bird has got to be one of the best sounds when you're off the beaten track

Agreed. That and the Pied Currawong cake provide rainforest vibes 👍

Thank you for show us the corridor. I will add it to my list to visit

Great vid, very enjoyable watching what birds can be found outside my state of nsw 😊

Another excellent upload, thank you for sharing.

Thank you. Love your videos, bilbies and quolls are so cute!

Thank you for this brilliantly informative video, Rob. Yet another of your recommendations to add to our birding list!

I'm flying in to brisbane this evening and just starting to search for place to bird while in town...thanks for this!

Welcome to Brisbane. You're spoiled for choice here. Don't forget to check out Oxley Creek Common 🙂 Have a great time

An excellent video and you certainly have great observation skills. Your walk and talk is both engaging and informative. Keep them coming.

You should of kept walking along the track behind the houses as there's lots of birds there along the creek, it goes for kilometres crossing over the creek in several areas

That's great. Our meetup group actually went here this morning and we got good views of the White-headed Pigeon at the start of the track you mentioned. Will definitely check it out further next time. Thank you 🙂

Have you been to Finland Road Bli Bli - Sunshine Coast? You would love it. Birders often get 50 -60 species in 3 or 4 hours.

A couple of times. It's great. I saw my first Australian Hobby there 🙂 Which section of the road do you find the most productive?

Thank you for another great video. Greetings from Jomfruland Bird Observatory in Norway. We are quiet happy today, with springmigration started and 75 species observed. I hope you keep on doing these great videos. Love them.

Hello from Oz! I hope to visit Norway some time. Spring migration and 75 in one day, so exciting 😁 Enjoy. I'm in the process of putting together the next video. Should be out in a few weeks.

A few times. I've done the circuit but haven't had much luck there. Which sections do you recommend?

Really enjoyed that. I’m very much into bird photography but you have grabbed my attention with your video technique. Any chance you could share some info about what gear you use? Thanks again. Wayne

Thank you. I use a Nikon P950, as DSLR/Mirrorless are much too heavy to be lugging around. I'm still refining my audio equipment rig. Message me on Facebook and we can discuss in detail :-)

Hi Rob, have wanted to create something similar to your 'virtual bird-walks' for years but you have definitely come up with some innovative and great new media, well-done. What equipment do you use for the capture and editing? I'm particularly impressed by the audio, it really-works. If you find yourself in the Dayboro area, get in touch, would love to discuss the technology (...and birding 😉) with you. Tom

Hey Rob ... camera do you use ... what do you suggest for a starter bird camera ?

@birdwatchingse-qld2253

2 ай бұрын

Hi, I use a Nikon P950. It provides a long enough range to get the bird in view and is much lighter and cheaper than an SLR or mirrorless (though these have better quality). If you are after a cheaper or starter camera, for capturing birds you'll want one with at least x10 zoom and with a viewfinder. Otherwise it's just too hard to capture the birds.

G’day Rob Thanks for your videos For the last few years from around November to March in the thicker parts near the top of Burleigh Headland there is a call that is driving me nuts When I stop to see where it’s coming from it stops The call is a distinct kuk kuk kuk Any ideas as when they are around I hear it almost daily and have not yet been able to spot it

Hi Paul, it's always hard to ID a bird call by text. Could it be a Tawny Grassbird? Next time you hear it, record it on your phone and send it to me via Facebook messenger and let's solve the mystery :-)
