Red backed kingfisher
In today's video I am in search of an unusual visitor to Melbourne, the red-backed kingfisher. When reports of this bird down by the Yarra started to trickle in I knew I had to get there to see it for myself. Enjoy!

    Great work Franciscus! I just love that it seems all kingfishers tap their tail. Do you have any theories why they might do this? Do you think the strange weather (due to Climate change?) might have something to do with birds been seen in unusual places? I have a video where I pose a theory about Kookaburras cleaning their bills. Do you think I might be onto something? ruclips.net/video/V6sV24WmTS0/видео.htmlsi=Sa-udHwTkYGMTXHz

    Hi Franciscus, new sub here. Just came across while searching spotted pardalot birding in sydney area. I got lucky yesterday while visiting Garigal N. Park.

  • @QuickQuips
    @QuickQuips 5 месяцев назад

    I'm deciding between this and the a7r3 for birding. The former has great AF while the latter can help with reach via cropping. What would you pick?

    • @FranciscusScheelings
      @FranciscusScheelings 4 месяца назад

      I've never used the A7T3 so can't comment on what it is like. However both of these cameras are quite old now and I'd be looking more towards something like the A7IV if you can afford it because in this model you get bird/animal eye detect which is a huge bonus.

    What I missed a great deal with testing the a7R5 (compared to my a9) was the missing capability of a shutter sound in electronic shutter mode. It’s just not present there, is this the same with the a7IV?

There was a tiny little brown / white / black spotty bird sitting there right in front of me. It was so minute, perfect & full of itself. We looked into each other's eyes for a minute & it darted off with its silvereye friends. A magic moment. Then I had to look it up. I'd heard about pardalotes, but never seen one. You live & learn, I guess.
