World birdwatching vlogs, tips, equipment reviews. As well as being a twitcher I am a London Black Cab driver, a powerlifter, speed cuber, and am very well travelled. 90 trips abroad and counting.
I have been taking photos for 20 years, mainly travel & street photography. In 2020 I needed a subject I could photograph at home, so putting up bird feeders and seeing what showed up was a natural choice. Wasn't long before I was hooked.
Started this channel in February 2024, after 4 years of bird watching. I felt I wanted to do more than just take photos of birds, and that video was a natural progression. I had already collected footage from my travels over the last 4 years, so had stuff to upload. Now I have started doing vlogs of days out, and when I travel I will do a vlog to help others when they go to those places.
I will also be doing equipment reviews, photography tips, and anything else I can think up.

I love your channel, my career has been in farming in the Kent Downs. We have some lovely birds up here with no water around. I love going to The Oare Marshes Nature Reserve. I have been suffering from severe arthritis in both knees limiting me to walking about 200 metres in this last year. I have now had one total knee replacement and hope to get the other one done in late January, I am so looking forward to getting out to nature reserves again. I love Rye Harbour, Dungeness National Nature Reserve and Sandwich Bay and will try Elmley as soon as I get mobile. I hope to bump into you one day. I love your approach, like me you don't know it all and you don't pretend to, I am not ashamed to admit that I often carry a bird ID book with me. Happy birding.
@@grahamcuthbert783 yeah hopefully meet you. It’s quite unnerving now, as each time I go out, more and more people recognise me 😂. I’ve only been birding less than 4 years, so won’t remotely know everything. When I speak to birders who have been doing it decades and still making mistakes, gives me hope. I wanted my approach to be more casual than polished BBC nature presenters - leave in mistakes, no silly B roll of walking past a camera or music overlay. Thanks for the reply. See you out there.
I've always thought that the juv. Grebes look like little humbug sweets. Whenever I go to Brooklands though, I always come across discarded fishing tackle in bushes etc.
Don't know if you spotted it, but my brain stopped working when I tried to say "humbug" and I had to quickly interject with "black stripy thing" lol
I did wonder what happened there! Lol.
I thought CapCut was web based? So if you store on your external HD, than what's the issue? I'm a newbie looking at editing options so this is an honest question.
I think they have a limited web based option, but there is a full downloadable program
@stormcabbirds Oh, ok. Got it. Thanks!
Beautiful birds in Brooklands Lake.
Yes they are!
@stormcabbirds Wonderful. 😁
There's plenty of Malayisa to see yet. Just prepping you for your next visit. Many thanks and appreciation for your efforts!
That’s amazing. Much appreciated.
Congratulations on at least "101 lifers" on your Vietnam, Malaysia trip. It seems everywhere you go in Malaysia there are birds, not only that, from my experience they are so much more colourful than the can I say rather drab colours back home in the U.K. I'm here with my wife for some considerable time and will attempt to shadow some of your footsteps along the way. You have shown that forested areas (and there are many) are not necessary for birding in Malaysia, your incredible count during your KL urban sessions show that. Many thanks for all the maps, tips, tricks, great narration and videos along the way. You should have your own TV series, it was that good.
Too kind. I’m putting lots of work in with the hope over the long term, maybe 5 years, I will have a successful channel that can fund me to cover many places around the world. It baffles me that there is a lack of good easy to understand information about many places. I plan to fill that gap as best I can.
Hello stormcabbirds. I visited your RUclips Channel. Your content is Excellent. But your Channel is not growing, Because your Content title and Description are not SEO-friendly and do not have Enough Rank tags. This is why there is no Content Coming to the top of RUclips. As a result, your video SEO Score is very low, according to VidiQ, (your channel's video's SEO score is 39.2/ out of 100, which should be 80+). If you want, I can make it 80+, which wifubll help your channel grow faster. If you SEO your videos Properly then the Channel Progress will be very Fast & Subscribers and Views will Increase. If you want I can solve problems and help you rank your videos Better. If you are Interested Please Let me know. Regards, Nazmun (RUclips Video SEO Expert).

Very nice!
Nice Malaysia series, been a few times and twice to Fraser Hill, hopefully going again in the not too distant future. Which hotel did you stay at? I stayed at the Puncak Inn twice but cannot get a reply from them.
@@adrianroyle4425 the Wyndham. It was a reasonable price. When I stay in an area I am unfamiliar with, I like to stay in a chain hotel so I have a bit more protection.
@@stormcabbirds I checked it out a few weeks ago, the name has changed in recent years and prices doubled, although I think it has had a major refurbishment. The first time I visited the road down from the town was closed due to a bridge replacement taking place. I spoke with the construction manager who told me he had seen a tiger on the road while he was heading to work one morning. A bit unnerving as I was walking. Last time I was there the road was open and I walked the loop down and up, quite productive at times. The trails I found to be mostly unproductive for birds but better for insects.
Thanks for this video! May I know which chestharness you are using? Thank you!
@@kaasnrijst if you looks back about 20 videos, I made a video about it “best way to carry your camera”
Paya Indah Wetland is a protected area under the National Wildlife Parks (Perhilitan) but I don't know why the entrance is now managed by Gamuda (major property & infra developer) though they have a good track record of conserving biodiversity and protecting green spaces in all their developments - they have established an arboretum near the entrance The wetlands is huge and you can arrange for tours, cycle & walk thru' the trails. There should be plenty of birding opportunities within the wetlands at the lake shores (herons, egrets, waterhens etc) On your next trip, do pay a visit to Forest Research Institute of Malaysia (FRIM) in Kepong, KL. There are plenty of bird opportunities within the park (take the guided tour where the oldest deciduous trees are located). Also Putrajaya Wetlands (huge tract), Putrajaya lakeside the middle islands are migrating stopovers. Good luck & happy birding!
@@chanfookwing Thanks for the tips
Mr Durai......a humble and hilarious man.
@@DrNick8002 yeah would have loved to have been there a week and be able to have a walk with him and listen to some stories.
I met Mr Durai a.k.a Birdman when I was around 13y.o (about 20+years ago). He called me "young man" and I helped him to spot birds during bird trekking activities. It was fun.
Amazing!
Love yr channel ❤❤❤
Too kind
It's been a pleasure watching your Malaysia and Vietnam vlog series. Hope you enjoyed your birding trip!
@@diface7389 thank you
Should come to the bukit antarabangsa area, theres many birds here. You can walk around the housing areas as most of them are surrounded by trees. We share the same forest as hulu langat, melawati and also pahang
Who the heck had time to name 10,000 birds in the world.
Some rich guy who retired just achieved it. Could afford to travel for years
Yeah sabah and fraser's hill is a paradise for bird watching
Congrats on 101 lifer in Malaysia
Hi, nice video. May I know what is the time you took these?
Was throughout the day
There are a number of parks in the capital Putrajaya which maybe suitable for birds to thrive such as the Wetland Park, Agriculture Herritage Park, Botany park plus a few more. Very easily accessible too, maybe your can check it out on your next trip here 😊🇲🇾👍
All of those for sure
Thanks a lot for the videos on birdwatching in Malaysia. So informative for me. Never knew there are so many species of birds in KL
Indeed..!!
My favourite country now for birds
you must have sharp eyes to be able to spot all these birds, man when i was in Fraser hill i dont think i saw as many😂 . Any tips for layperson to spot a bird? do you go only by listening to the chirpings or are there any other sort of pro tips
Definitely a skill you need to develop. Constantly be looking 360°, on the ground, eye level, in the sky. Regularly stop and look straight into trees & bushes without moving your head. That way if there is a bird moving, you’ll see it, and know it wasn’t because you moved your head. Check as many birds in the flock as possible as there could be a dozen different species.
Thank you for your great work. Nice I enjoy it.
Amazing bird sanctuary Malaysia 🐦🐦⬛🦜🕊️🦅🐤🦤🦃🐧🦩🪿🦆🐓🇲🇾🌺♥️😊
Hopefully more trees are studied n planted, that bear fruits or nuts , carried out by d authourity of each townships , that definitly will help n improve d survival of these " fragile creature " , d birds ! Hopefully d effort would be carried wth awareness n seriously . Tqvm
What an amazing Malaysian Series! and for that, I subscribed 😅 - an amateur balcony birdwacher 😁
Do you keep a list of the species spotted from your balcony?
no proper list tho 😆 but I've recorded about 30 species. used to post some on IG
A mega diverse country
Very much so
Are these birds originally from Malaysia? Because i never seen most of them
@@rainsdrope most people who aren’t birdwatching can be oblivious to the most birds around them, like I was before I became a bird. When you learn to watch & listen closely, you will see them. A long lens or powerful binoculars obviously helps.
Glad to hear Malaysia wins the bird race!
Certainly does. If I win the lottery I’m on a plane straight back over lol
@@stormcabbirds Yes ! I want to see more Malaysia bird vids from you 😄 Very informative
Mr Durai "the Birdman". He's a living legend in birding tourism in Malaysia. Still look healthy. Haven't met him for few years already
Haha. I went into buy some water and I thought he was just a friendly shopkeeper asking me if I was there for the birds. When he quickly started rattling off species names, I was like “yo, this guy is legit”
@stormcabbirds Maybe you came during weekdays and he wasn't busy. Lots of birders looking for him to be their guide as he is very well verse about the birds in the area
he's well known for mimicking many bird calls!
Amazing birding trip! I am also happy that you were able to record more than 100 species of birds in my country, Malaysia. Congratulations!
@@CheikoSairin now I need to come back and get the other 800 lol
The footage of the two Yellow-vented Bulbuls together is so nice
Please may enquire: (1) is inexpensive accommodation available at Frazers Hill (2) Does that gentleman bird guide charge high fees to take one out birding or is it a reasonable price ?
@@earnestlad1872 no idea. Sure a quick email will do no harm. If a super nice guy.
The accommodation is reasonable for somewhere so secluded, but obviously not as cheap as central KL. I’d say it’s at least double what you would pay for similar in KL
@@stormcabbirds Thank you. It seems a wonderful country birding wise. Even better than Sri Lanka I guess (and that was very good)
@@stormcabbirds I just looked online and the place I saw you come out in the video at This Frazer Hills was reasonably priced
Can you pls give us a review of Malaysian birds compared to others, we just love to listen foreigners talk about us! What is a lifer?
@@shahesfelazi8549 haha, I’ll see what I can do. Malaysia is definitely my new favourite birding place! A lifer is the first time in your life you have seen that bird.
Fraser hill is definitely a bird paradise
GOOD looking out man !!!!!! thank you for loving !!!!!!!

I wonder in this world how many bird species are there
Apparently about 10,000 !

A perfect spot to watch birds. Fraser's hill has less development compared to cameron highlands.
