    We have seen those exact three wild dogs on the H1-8 before in 2021. I checked the photos!

    I love that the small creatures get as much love on the channel as the big charismatic fauna. What a treat!

    I love this video : An ambience of complete peacefulness surrounds the soothing narrating - a sense of relaxation is experienced. I suspect you guys are very relaxed & peaceful in your demeanour!

    Thoroughly enjoyed this video! The footage and story telling was captivating, and loved that clip that focus shifted from the birds to the buffalos - what a nice reveal!

      Thank you! The focus shifting was experimental but worked out nicely

    I enjoyed your video and have subscribed. I'm 99% certain your Ruffs are Wood Sandpipers, which we get here in the UK on passage.

    • @dogsofthewind
      @dogsofthewind  Год назад

      Thanks so much for the sub and the info on the sandpipers. We always find those difficult to identify!

      @@dogsofthewind Yip Mike beat me to it. Wonderful video though I still need to complete the Punda Maria section of the park lots of lifers for me still up there.

    Great video! One request - can you introduce a lag before displaying the name of the birds? I am trying to find vids to use to teach my kid to identify KP birds and he thinks it is pretty funny if he can just read the answer instead of working it out for himself! The lag just needs to be long enough to pause the vid.

    • @dogsofthewind

      Cool idea! We’ll try sort it out for our future videos,
