That bird at around 5 minutes in is most likely a Common ringed plover - Charadrius hiaticula. I also see someone else suggesting Merlin BirdID on the phone and I agree and recommend it wildly. You can even go out and about and have it record the bird sounds and it will suggest - with great accuracy - exactly which bird it is. You will be amazed at how good it is at pinpointing species!

Very enjoyable,many thanks

Even though you have a great telephoto / zoom lense, try to get closer to your animals or let nature takes it course until it is closer to you, so you can take a better shot 📸📹

Muy buena elección si finalmente compras el sony 200-600mm, es algo más pesado que la configuración que llevas pero la calidad y el acercamiento que vas a tener merece la pena. Yo lo tengo con la A9 y también hago vuelos a pulso siempre que puedo. Buen objetivo, buena calidad y te ahorras un poco el gimnasio,

Great stuff Jo and some nice images. Although you mentioned the weight issue with a 600 do think you’ll find it will improve your images. Unless you’re doing birds in flight shots a monopod would be a help. 😀👍

Another enjoyable video.. for bird ID I use first of all my iPhone, secondly Merlin Bird ID, but lthe app which is even more accurate is an app called Picture Bird.. It is even more accurate than the former two.. usually when I use it, it's after I've taken a photo of the bird and am back in my studio and putting the photo of the bird on my big screen on desktop computer...btw, your camera and lens have great image stabilization when you take video

Hi, Nice video, as always! Just wanted to let you know, that I don't think one can hold the 200-600 mm plus camera up with 1 hand like that for long. It is way to heavy and I think one will be shaking with fatigue quickly. Or maybe it is just me and I need to go the gym 😅 You gonna wanna take an extra light camera for vlogging with you then and that will bring some more extra weight with it. And you do have to carry it all around with you on your hikes. But the quality of that 200-600mm lens is great. I always use it with the 1.4 for the 840mm and crop some more after. I love it but I really wish it was much lighter. Maybe you can rent one to see?

Hi Jo, what are you using to attach your camera to your body whilst walking please? It looks much more comfortable than a cross body strap!

Hey Jo! Brilliant Video. So Happy RUclips recommended this one! Keep going my friend! 2k subs in no time!

Nice work. Really enjoyed these views. I do like the 200-600, but it is heavy (as you know). Your setup is quite nice. Had I chance for a do over, I think I’d go your route.

I love this video its nice and relaxing.. thank you for the video❤

great video!

Excellent video Jo 👏🏻brilliant photos 👍📸big fan of your style 😊

Nice video and beautiful pictures.

Really enjoyed that Jo and thanks for sharing it. Eigg looks amazing and looks like you had the whole place to yourself. 😀

Lovely scenery and wildlife thanks for sharing 👍🏻👍🏻

Another lovely video Jo, looking forward to the next one! (Hopefully your leg is a little less bruised by then😥)

A lovely video and getting the shots isn't always what it's about even though it can be frustrating at times. Time in nature is a priceless experience and great for your mind and well being. Pleased you didn't hurt yourself to much or break your camera/lens Keep up the good work 😊👍👏

Just curious- how did you get that overhead shot at 3:40? Did your partner put a GoPro on a selfie stick?

Sorry about your. I hope you didn’t suffer much. Could you tell me what you hat is about. I’ve been following you and each video I keep on looking at it trying to figure it out. Thank you for your videos. 😊

Well persevered Jo, some decent ‘animal in its environment’ shots there. Hop the leg is ok. Must get up to the western isles!

Excellent video Jo 👍big fan of your channel 😊love your style of photography 👏

Nice capture. Please do take care, i know how difficult is sometime . I have had same experience as well while photographing Birds.

Lovely video Jo, enjoyed watching !!!

Morning Jo very lovely place thar, hopefully your leg is feeling a lot better today. lovely video as all ways mate take care of yourself stay safe mate

Thoroughly enjoyed this. Thanks.

Superb footage Jo really impressed👌 Beautiful little birds😁

素晴らしいです。この鳥の名前は日本名でノビタキといいます。私が大好きな鳥です。

Great shots ! Just found your channel, good luck in your wildlife photography journey 👍

看你的视频，让我感觉很放松，非常喜欢，我也想尝试去户外拍摄大自然。

Wonderful. I love that excitement too, your photos are beautiful. What a sweet subject, very cute.

great shots you got thanks for sharing. can't wait for there return here in Jeddah. some appear early in September but they leave immidialaty. then many come late October and the stay all autumn and winter. then they break my heart when they leave in March 😢

Great stuff Jo, looks like you managed to get some great shots of them, really chuffed for you. Your perseverance paid off. West coast of Scotland defo on my bucket list. 👍

wow stunning

Looks like you had an entire family of Stonechats there. The photos came out bloody excellent! 👍 We have far more of the Saxicola rubetra - Whinchat - but on a few locations I can see the Saxicola rubicola - Stonechat - that you have here. Both are equally striking to look at. My initial thought when you started to walk into the higher grasses and ferns was that there have to be loads of ticks, and I hope you have had the seasonal shots against TBE and a set of good tweezers. Lyme disease you can't vaccinate against yet, but it is just as horrible.

Awesome so lovely video once again

Wonderful photo and video. Thanks for sharing your birding adventure. A big LIKE from Singapore.

That's cool! Great images! Thanks for letting me tag along!

Excellent video and great photos Jo 📸👏🏻☀️

Mallaig, our favourite place. Normally visit 3 or 4 times a year and stay in cottage at end of circular walk. See White-tailed Eagle most days.

Morning Jo brilliant video as all ways its nice to see you out again enjoying yourself take care of yourself stay safe mate

We like the Vedio you make and also photograph birds as well. If you can add Chinese subtitle would be great that my parents can know what you say😊

Buy a yoga mat to sit on it's nice and warm and better than some plastic,you can fold it easy in to tree layers.

Currently staying at Center Parks Elveden and have taken pictures of my grand daughter hand feeding Muntjac deer outside our lodge. They are so tame.

Really good shots! Took a risk and payed off!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤

Great effort Jo, can’t have been easy on that dinghy, at 6ft 6 I don’t think I’d have fitted in it!, 😂

Enjoying your walk and positivity on the learning curve Jo. I guess that's wildlife photography 😅. Also have to say... nicely produced video.. The effort you put into it really shows..

Really lovely vlog Jo and some lovely shots as well. Cheers for sharing it.............👍

sweet one, thanks for sharing, btw wonder would be possible to snorkel there and do underwater photos or too dark/ ships around/ currents issues?

Nicely done Jo, your certainly getting about for the wildlife..cheers Den
