- Before heading over to the Isle of Mull, I stopped over in Oban to try and find the resident Black Guillemots. Well I managed to find them, and had a wonderful photographing these charismatic little birds. I hope you enjoy the video as much as I enjoyed the experience!

My hubby is a birder and the Black Guillemot is on his list to see when we got upto Scotland in October. I'm glad you found your mystery bird, hubbies nemesis is the wryneck, everytime he goes for, it's never where people report it to be, the joys of birding😊
Oh beautiful! I hope they're still there in October, I could be wrong, but I think they're only there during the breeding season. Ah I've never seen a wryneck either, would absolutely love to though. Thanks for the comment
This bird is beautiful. You got a stunning footage. A big LIKE for the video. Thanks for sharing. Happy birding!!!
Marc this was an excellent video with some stunning still, behavioural images! I've only seen this species from a great distance. Thank you for sharing.
@@StephenJStephen_Photography thanks a lot Stephen, that's very kind of you! Thanks for watching 😊
Lovely pictures , wonderful birds .
Thank you very much for the comment 😊

Stunning images Mark , photographed them a couple of years ago with a phone and couldn’t believe how close they came to you . Enjoy mull my favourite place
Thanks Stephen 😊 incredibly obliging subjects, now I want to go back for more 😂
These are wonderful images Marc - enjoy Mull! ❤
wow, that was smashing!
Thank you Scott! It's very much appreciated
Really liked the pictures with two birds interacting with each other- both on land and water. You get a sense of their characters.
Thanks Stuart - they do seem to be constantly squabbling, so they're excellent subjects for that
Nice song man I really like the vibe of it
That was just great Marc, some stunning images. I take it you were just using exposure compensation to balance the whites. 👍
Thank you Ian 😊 I tend to shoot with manual ISO these days, don't ask me why! I just prefer it haha. So I was just moving the ISO up and down as and when needed
Thanks for that Marc. Maybe something I should experiment with for that situation. 👍
maaate these are so so good, if you don't make the three shots from 6:20 into valentines cards then I will
Thanks brudda! Be my guest, we'll split the profits 50/50
Lucky you Marc brilliant would love to see them have a good time on mull 👍🏻👍🏻
Cheers Dave, much appreciated!
A week in Mull! Lucky boy!
I'm counting my lucky stars for sure!
Great video Marc, some lovely photos of the Black Guillemots 👍
Thank you Chris 😊
Real pleasure to watch Marc, fabulous images, wishing you a successful trip to Mull, look forward to seeing some of the results. 👍
Thank you John - much appreciated! 2 weeks left go on Mull now, we've been lucky with the weather thus far... I fear that's about to change haha
Fantastic foties Marc. Keep it up and you will soon be as good as your mate Dan❤❤❤
Thanks Andrew! Haha well that's definitely something to aim for 😊
Can't express how much I'm excited about this video. Not only have I stood in the exact place some years ago, noticing the guillemots breeding in the wall (while not taking half as beautiful images as you), I'm also going to spend three weeks on Mull from mid of July on, so your series couldn't come at a better moment!
Oh brilliant! You'll have lots of fun, what have you got planned?
@@marchumphreyphotography So far we have planned two boat trips, one to Lunga and Staffa with the 4h stay on Lunga, and another one to see dolphins and whales. Other than that we will explore the island according to weather and mood. :)
Some cracking shots, Marc! New subscriber to your channel, really enjoying the your content and keep it up. Enjoy your time on Mull!
Thank you Connor, I really appreciate it! Pleased to have you as a subscriber 😊
What are you vlogging with Marc? Looks great!
I caved and got myself the DJI Pocket 3 - it's absolutely fantastic. I think the only drawback is it's not weatherproof at all - so not ideal for a lot of vlogging in the UK 😂
@marchumphreyphotography Yeah same with the 2! I really prefer the separation the 3 is able to achieve as I absolutely hate the look of the 2!!!
@marchumphreyphotography Great images as well BTW! My head just immediately had to comment about the look of the video lol
@@JoeMaranophotography hahaha thanks mate - no worries pal! Yeah the 3 has got a bigger sensor I think, so massively improves the subject separation and low-light capabilities.
Hi Marc can l ask you, can you actually get a shutter sound out of the OM1?
Hi Neil, not with the electronic shutter - as far as I'm aware it's only with the mechanical shutter
If the red feet are not in the picture, the black and white photos are nicer.
Agreed Richard!
