    Omgosh! Anyone else yell at the tv “The water! the water!!” when the little wave came in? 😂

    Omg, I always love watching these kind of birds scurry back-and-forth on the sand.

    I love shorebirds as well and this video really inspires me to get out and do more with them. I love your approach of scouting out a location and being prepared with either a blind, or in this case, appropriate clothing and then coming back and getting the shots. All of these have been so helpful and inspiring. And of course your photos are extraordinary. Please keep them coming as you have time. (And I loved your book).

    Incredibly informative video. Enjoyed it. Never heard of a Ground Pod, definitely food for thought. Wondering if you used the Z9 to video the flying Sanderlings. Will look at your other videos as well. Take Care and Stay Safe, Dale

      Thanks, Dale. Yes, all of the bird stuff was filmed on a Nikon Z9.

    Muy buenas Gerrit, un saludo desde Asturias norte de España. Las aves playeras son mis predilectas y para serte sincero disfruto con el simple hecho de verlas en acción. Una de las cosas más importantes cuando trabajo en este medio es la protección del equipo con fundas adecuadas y lo más importante saber como está el mar y la hora de la subida o bajada de la marea. La vestimenta que normalmente me pongo cuando trabajo en este medio es un traje de neopreno de tres milímetros, me protege del frio y de las rozaduras de la arena y las piedras. Estoy de acuerdo contigo en lo machacado que te queda el cuerpo con estas sesiones, sobre todo las cervicales. Por lo demás creo que es un tipo de fotografía que representa todo un reto para cualquier fotógrafo que quiera reptar un poco. Por supuesto que el mejor punto de vista es tumbado en el suelo y reptando, sin prisa y tomando todo el tiempo necesario. En estos momentos estoy en pleno proceso de un trabajo sobre este tipo de aves aquí en la costa cantábrica. Un vídeo magnífico y unas fotos increíbles. Un saludo.

    Wonderful video Gerrit. Where I'm living in Thailand we get Sanderlings and exotic stuff such as the occasional Spoon-billed Sandpiper. Often see some in full or partial breeding plumage birds in March when they start feeding up before heading back to Siberia. Its also the hottest time of the year with cloudless skies and 35C plus and hotter on the sand. Lots of heat haze and sunburn to contend with.

    • @GerritVyn
      @GerritVyn  4 месяца назад

      Yes, heat shimmer is tough to deal with at times. I’ve got some heat shimmery stuff of Spoon-billed Sand from hot mudflats in Myanmar similar to where you are. Thanks for the note!

    I live in the UK and had the same goal last year, I got extremely lucky and found a small group of 5 on a local beach. The downside was the one who was in full summer plumage was shy and hid behind the others 😂
    For this year and possibly next I've set myself the goal of photographing Red necked Phalarope and Red throated Divers 😅

    • @GerritVyn
      @GerritVyn  5 месяцев назад

      I had a few Red-necked Phalaropes land on the beach but the footage didn’t make it in. I always neglect to do enough with them! Good luck!

    Excellent stuff. When I used to shoot landscapes at the coast I usually did it on off-shore flow. Not just because the wave spray makes the photos so nice, but I simply don't like the salt air on my gear and when you have an off-shore flow you don't get that. I have to wonder how that might impact shore bird photography, if it does and how much.

    • @GerritVyn
      @GerritVyn  4 месяца назад

      Probably not much of a the birds but definitely on the camera gear. Good note and thing to remember!

    Very enjoyable and informative. I noticed black spots on a few them. Is that oil?

    • @GerritVyn
      @GerritVyn  5 месяцев назад

      I didn’t notice anything. May just be part of them molting into darker breeding plumage you are seeing?
