Thank you! :)

😅 haha someone who was sitting there before me was giving seeds to the birds so they kept coming back behind me!

Thank you. I’m glad to know you found this useful and relatable - one day I’d love to get something with more reach, maybe 100-500mm but for now the 300mm is perfect for me :)

Thanks Paul!

Thank you Raymond :) keep trying and you’ll get there! If you can lie down on the ground and wait then that’s your best chance, or park a car at the edge of a field and use it as a hide!

Thank you!

Awww they are so fun to watch. Great stills and video! Watching them me smile, thank you!

@@sueg2658 thank you Sue! I’m glad you enjoyed it :)

Thanks Daniel! Looking forward to checking out your channel later, in particular the adder video as it’s a species I’ve always struggled to find!

Thank you! No I’ve never heard of that but may have to give it a go - thanks!

Ah that sounds amazing! What did your dog think? 😅

@@wildlifewitholly my Dog just stood there and watched him walk into a bush , which is just how i wanted it , may be a future friendship .

Thanks for the comment Raymond, hope you’re well!

Thanks Sue, so adorable! Hope you’re well! :)

Thank you! :)

Thanks Barbara, I’m glad you enjoyed it and thank you for the comment!

I couldn’t believe my eyes! Quite possibly a once in a lifetime moment

Thank you Sue, very true and it’s in moments like this that you truly feel like you’ve been accepted into nature which is the best feeling!

@@wildlifewitholly 👍🏻♥️

Ah no way haha, pretty spectacular wasn’t it! Thanks for the comment :)

Thanks Paul!

I felt so lucky to be able to see it!

Thanks Nick, glad you enjoyed it and I appreciate the comment and kind words! :)

Thanks John, glad you enjoyed it - we definitely got treated to a pretty awesome moment 🦫

At the end of the video I had a 300mm f2.8 so the adapter is just a mount adapter as it isn’t an R series lens, I didn’t actually get any photos or footage with it in this video though

@@paulyoung6165 thanks for the comment! :)

Thanks Sue, it was incredible!

What a wonderful encounter Olly, lucky you and thanks for sharing 👍

@@raymondpenalver7095 thank you Raymond!

Thank you! I would personally choose the 2nd hand 400 f2.8, the main reason being the ability to shoot at 400mm with an aperture of f2.8. With the 100-500 you’ll be at f7.1 at 500mm so it’s difficult in low light. It depends when and what you’re mostly photographing though :)

@@wildlifewitholly roe deer, Red deer. Most of the time before sunrise and after sunset. Been using tamron 150-600 g2 for years now. Time to upgrade…

@@dimitrihullebroek7844 nice! if it’s before sunrise/after sunset I’d definitely suggest 400mm f2.8

Thanks for watching mate! Appreciate the comment as well!

Thanks Jon!

Thanks for the comment! Yes I expect so re 2x extender over there, I’m moving to California in September for a couple of years so might need to bring my converter with me!

Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for leaving a comment! :)

Thanks Jonathan, glad you enjoyed it and thank you for the comment :)

Hi, that’s really interesting! I did notice the badger in one of the clips did seem to pick up on the trailcam so I wondered if it was putting them off and I’m still not 100% sure the sett wasn’t in use but I’d have thought I would’ve seen more of them if it was, what do you think?

@@wildlifewitholly I think they have one hole which is an escape route only, but you should see their well trodden route through the grass, we have several setts either side of us, one of which has such large holes you would be forgiven if you thought bears lived down there. They’re opportunistic feeders and know where to get protein from, they can smell peanuts from quite a distance just try spreading a few in front of the trail cam and you need them to walk towards the camera so it has time to activate another good reason to spread peanuts. Good luck.

@@dougson56 thanks, unfortunately I’m not around the area anymore but might have to give it one more go later in summer!

Thanks! I used to think England had rubbish wildlife but it just took me a couple of years to find some good spots and learn the fieldcraft to find it, maybe it’s the same in Ireland?

Thank you! :) I’m using the Ceyomur C60 and I think the other was an Apeman one but I don’t have it with me so can’t quite remember. The Ceyomur C60 is great quality footage but I don’t pick much up on it so I think it is missing a lot of things unfortunately. Most of the footage on this video is from the other one.

Thanks Richard! Glad you enjoyed it and it was great to be able to show so many species!

Thanks Raymond! I’m glad you enjoyed it even though I didn’t find the badgers in the end! As you said, hopefully the next government does a lot more for nature 🤞🏼

@@wildlifewitholly 🙏

Thank you John! Was a shame not to get the badgers this time but can’t complain considering how much else I saw and hopefully I’ll get them soon!

Ah wow I hadn’t heard about that! I suppose with any wildlife there’s always a slight risk, I’m sure even a roe deer could do some damage if it decided to! Yes I wouldn’t want to have put the peanuts out and then photographed them but for the trailcam it felt a bit different - I only did it for one night in the end and didn’t put many out so I’ve got a massive bag leftover 😅 I’m crossing my fingers that the next government will do the right thing but not convinced!

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the comment :) hopefully the next government steps up!

Thanks John! I felt so lucky to see what I did and the owls were a real highlight!

I felt so lucky to see so much! The tawny owl in particular was probably the highlight for me!

Thanks Martin! Appreciate you taking the time to leave a comment :)

Thanks so much for the kind comment! I’m glad you enjoyed it and you’re totally right, so often I don’t see exactly what I’m looking for but when there’s so much more to see it’s still so enjoyable!

Thanks man! :)

Thanks Johann! I often think the local wildlife is the most meaningful and it’s great you’ve got them close by!
