Brilliant, Owls are my favorite. I’ve only seen a Barred Owl in the wild. Just wonderful video. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and respecting the critters.
I'm way overdue....I intended on commenting on your previous posting on capturing grey owls....then this post hit my feed and was in awe of the overall content. Thanks for taking the time to provide detailed comments on all facets of your techniques...the science and the art of the shot. I really enjoyed the educational points on both the grey and screech owls and the techniques you used to observe and capture on camera safely. Look forward to more videos in the future that increase my knowledge of these mystical birds and how to respectfully capture their grace. Thanks Gerrit!
Hi Gerrit...Great vlog...Agree completely with your ethical photography views...Would greatly appreciate a vlog on your Z9 bird photography settings...Also a field vlog describing your "on the fly" settings decisions as they happen would be great.
Gerrit thanks so much for sharing with us a look at your creative process. My Bird Photography has improved significantly. After reading your book and watching your Vlogs. Thanks again so much.
Hi Gerrit, Another wonderfully produced video, your constant reminder of the safety of the birds and keeping prying eyes away from your quarry id fantastic and more birders should take a leaf out of your book and promote for situational awareness at all times to protect our wildlife. Congratulations mate, I really appreciate your wonderfully strong conservation messages and I certainly hope that more than a few get through, Bruce Terrill
I just stumbled on your channel and I love it . I watched all your videos . Not just because of the beautiful footage bud also because of all the information you give about the birds . I really hope that you are going to make many more. Thank you !!
Excellent content and presentation Gerrit. I love the amount of respect you have/show for the health and wellbeing of your subjects. The side by side by side comparison of the varying light conditions was excellent. Love the vlog, keep up the great work. Jim R
Wonderful video - Thank you very much. Believe it or not, I was lucky enough to photograph a mother Western Screech Owl and her two chicks in my back garden, just east of Sacramento, CA, last year during broad daylight while they were sitting in a large Maple. Please keep up the good work.
Another fantastic and informative vlog. I'm with you and your friend on keeping things like this quiet. I found a barred owl nest a few years ago and have only told a few trusted friends that I know will respect the site. Love these recent videos!
That was the exact instructional video about this owl I needed. Where it likes to live, time of day, and the lighting tips were superb. I'm in Corvallis, and I'm on the lookout for owls every time I'm outside. I found a Pygmy which I was super excited about, and some GHOs. Excellent video, keep 'em coming!
Really nice vlog Gerrit. You have reminded me of the importance of encouraging viewers to give the animal some space. We cannot stress that point enough, I think.
Photos all look great . Do you ever print your photos on Canvas or metal prints? I'm doing that until I have a large enough collection to do a showing of my photography works. Nice shots .
Great information. Love your respect for the wildlife.
I'm new on your channel(VLOG), from Quebec, Canada, really enjoy your comments and tips, i'll keep following you. Thanks Gerrit
Very nice photos and commentary. Thanks.
Another informative film on owls. Great Pictures!

I was looking for one of these little ones yesterday at a local park here in King County, WA. No luck, it was 9-10ish in the morning.
It’s a tough time of year to find them, but I hope you have better luck soon!
