    As someone who loves hummingbirds, and toucans too, this video was special. Also, I didn't know about antpittas. They're so tiny and pretty The elevated forest landscape is so beautiful. Seeing a passionate birder, especially a young one who is still early in their journey, receive a nice pair of bins will never not be heartwarming. Love the series.

    Another great video. Again, incredible birds and great footage. I am a bit obsessed right now with the quality of image that you are getting by simply putting your cellphone to the scope. Is that because of the quality of the scope itself or is it because you got great light and are experienced at getting a wonderful image?

    Thank you, Jeffrey. So glad you enjoy the videos 😁 as for the digiscoping videos, it’s a combination of factors really: the closer the bird and the better the light, the better the video for sure. These toucans were close and the light was pretty good. But the combo of phone camera and scope quality is also super important: this was shot on the Kowa TSN-88 with an iPhone, so that combined quality gets me pretty good images.

I much rather prefer real habitat birding, looking for skulky jobs and in natural conditions... but hey, a lot of these places feeding birds have allowed normal non-birding people to get closer and in awe with the birds so all in all, a win win... that's one of the magic of birds: they please each of us on a specific/different way and that's what makes them special 🙌
