My sister Paula, who has some remote connection to you, told me about this video. My favorite park in Canada is Algonquin. I was a Junior Ranger there in Kiosk and I just love this video. I am living at the moment in the Philippines so this is really wonderful to see. Thank you very much.
Thanks, Peter, glad you enjoyed it. Algonquin is a magical place and I am sure you must have fond memories of your time spent there as a junior ranger. Cheers.
This Is an outstanding presentation on not only Algonquin Provincial Park but many others birding areas. Excellent work Tony and Kathy. Your son also did an excellent job with the music background. All and all work worthy of national attention. Congratulations from Bob and Rose Mary Walker.
This is a beautiful video! My boyfriend and I love Algonquin Park and have recently started getting into identifying different birds. Thank you so much :)
i dont mean to be so off topic but does anyone know a way to log back into an Instagram account?? I stupidly lost the password. I love any assistance you can give me.
@Trent Carl I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site through google and im trying it out now. Takes a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
This video is excellent! I was really impressed by the quality of the video footage, the narration, editing and content. This video would be an excellent addition to the video line-up at the Visitor Centre in the park!
Oh my goodness, where do I start. The photography alone must have taken years to compile, so many species. Then there is all the research to pull together for the narrative never mind recording that narrative and synchronizing it with the images adding bird calls and music... Outstanding. Clearly a work of much passion . Thank- you so much for sharing it. I learn so much from others. Be Safe, Hugs Norrie
I live next to the park and there is a bird that calls very distinctly a descending cascade of notes that almost sounds like the opening tinkling sounds of Fleetwood Mac's song "Everywhere", though that sound is repetatively going up and down a range of notes, while the bird call is almost like a roller coaster going down, up, down, up, down, down.... I have never seen the bird though I grew up and have moved back here. Apparently, it is a little gray bird... like all the rest! There are at least 5 calling around my farmhouse as I write this. I have gone to the Roger Tory Peterson recordings and this call is not recorded. At the risk of sounding daft, here is the link to the Mac song. Please listen and tell me what you think the Northern Ontario bird call equivalent would be. ruclips.net/video/fIoxpiS01gE/видео.html Never mind - it's a veery, which you talk about at about 13:40! You beat Roger Tory Peterson!
As I was reading your reply, I immediately thought of the Veery. It is a beautiful sounding bird that, when camping as a child, I always wondered what it was as I listened early morning from inside the tent. You would think it was a bird in the forest, playing a flute. A beautiful bird with a beautiful song.
This is a beautiful and well done video. Not to dwell on mistakes, but if you continue to work on this video, Swanson's Thrush is an incorrect pronunciation, its Swainson's. I was unsure of the identification to Hermit Thrush, It may be correct, have to go back and look again, and perhaps the poor lighting, but I do not see a red tail. Anyway, that is constructive criticism. I will share with my friends. Again, a beautiful video and thanks for sharing.
For bird indentification, I prefer Peterson Field Guides Eastern Birds. There is also a ROM Field Guide to Birds of Ontario which just has one photograph for each species, but has more species information than Peterson's.
Wow. Amazing work. Beautiful birds. Wonderful captures. A pleasure to watch. Thank you . Enjoyed Irene.
Been camping in Algonquin Park since the 80s!

@Trent Carl It did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thank you so much you really help me out!

Thanks for watching our video. Glad you enjoyed it.
Amazing video and images!
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it.
Great photography. Very informative
Wow! Great job! I can tell you put a lot of time and effort in this video.
Thank you, it was an effort, but also a labour of love.
well done

Thanks for your kind comments, Norrie. So glad you enjoyed the video.
I was surprised by the lack of predatory birds i.e.. hawks, eagles, owls etc.

Amazing video... @5:47 in just as the forest shot starts there is a long call. What bird is it?
Thank you, that birds call was from the White-throated Sparrow. His song is beautiful.
volume is so low I can't hear it
There are 2 Algonquin Parks - on in Ontario and one in NY - where is this one ?
This would be Algonquin Park in Ontario Canada. www.algonquinpark.on.ca/
Is that up-down call at 24:44 a black capped chickadee?
Yes it is. It sounds like they are calling for a "cheese burger".
Chickadees are my favourite bird.
Which is the best book for Ontario bird watching?
For bird indentification, I prefer Peterson Field Guides Eastern Birds. There is also a ROM Field Guide to Birds of Ontario which just has one photograph for each species, but has more species information than Peterson's.
