Filming & Painting Kingfishers Inside Their Nest | Wildlife Art | Robert E Fuller

Үй жануарлары мен аңдар

Interested in seeing how kingfishers brought up their young, I undertook an ambitious project to film kingfishers inside their pitch black nesting chamber. It has given me a fascinating insight into this secretive bird's behaviour.

    Actually I once raised 7, once 5, once 3 and many more! As far as I can remember we got these birds from little hills in the mountains in rural areas of China during summer vacations,especially! Well, we gave our birds tadpoles, frogs and little fish to eat and most of them got fledged later and flew back to nature. I also got several smart ones which could fly to the fields or somewhere and then flew back like a pet. But eventually they left us and never came back and that was heart-breaking for us and it was about the time we go to shool though. We kept different kinds of birds to see which kind could recognize the raiser and never leave us, but eventually they were all gone. I do have a few wonderful mornings that my bird was trying to wake me up or my grandpa woke me up very early just to tell me that my bird lost yesterday had flown back begging for food. It was all so wonderful and beautiful! 翠鸟就直接放在纸盒子里养,没有笼子,很自由! My grandpa is 91 now!

I would really appreciate it if you could help as I am undecided at present what lights to use and more importantly how often you had them on. Many thanks Alan
