- In this vlog I am going to be building a reflection pool for bird photography. It is my first DIY project of making a reflection pond for garden bird photography. It has learned me a lot. I hope it is useful for your own projects. Or that you enjoy watching my struggles ;)

Argh, I of course meant bullfinch!!
I need to check these English names better when I am editing... Sorry guys!
Your English is way better than my Dutch!
These are just errors I could have avoided by checking it out on Wikipedia...
no woories, i dont know any English bird names. In Germany we call them Dompfaff by the way
amazing content love your work :)
Thanks so much Școala!
excellent video !
Glad you liked it!
great video and fantastic tips
Leuke video weer Jeroen, de gevoerde jas die je aan hebt lijkt mij ook lekker warm, je vermeld alles aan gear wat je gebruikt, behalve de kleding haha ;) van welk merk is die jas ? :)
Dat is Buffalo, een Brits merk. Kan je onder andere kopen bij Siegurd.nl. Is echt de moeite waard. De heupband van de rugzak kan bv door de buikzakken heen waardoor het daar luchtig blijft, en dus warm. Britse special forces gebruiken die jas ook...
Wow beautiful, Happy New Year
Thanks so much Bogdan!
superb happy new year
Best wishes Alan!
Great video my friend, Happy New Year.
Glad to hear that you enjoyed the video Chris!
Reflection pools are great aren't they? Amazing how quickly they investigate.
It gives some amazing opportunities for sure!
prachtige video, en mooi project. Gelukkig nieuwjaar Jeroen
De beste wensen voor 2021 Thierry!
Well I know what I'm building this weekend. Very inspiring video thank you.
Glad to hear that you enjoyed the video hopeulikepics! Wish you well and a lot of creative idea's with your project :)
Lovely Vlog Jeroen, something I've been meaning to do for a while! I think you've inspired me to do it soon. All the best Richard
You should! It is not really my type of photography, but still I learned so much from it. That will all be useful in my other photography.
Awesome 🤩 thanks for sharing!!
Glad to hear that you enjoyed the video John NYC ; ]!
Very enjoyable presentation, I have also just built a similar pool out of an old car roof box, a pallet and 4 posts. I am also going to put a small “fence” of chicken wire about 10cm high down the sides to help persuade the birds to go to the right end... when the UK lockdown ends of course! :-)
Thanks Alan! Good luck with your project!
Hi Jerome, your enthusiasm is inspiring and only outshone by the quality of your images.
Thanks so much Keith! Much appreciated :)
That is a great idea! I'll definitely be stealing that idea from you when it warms up in Minnesota. Thanks for even more inspiration Jeroen!
Wish you succes worth your project!
i enjoyed. good video
Glad to hear that you enjoyed the video Birds own House!

Welcome to the channel Hitmhard!
Brilliant Jeroen, had the same sort of idea, haven't quite got round to it yet. Great photo's Enjoying your video's Greetings from Norfolk UK. Have a Great New Year Birding.
Thanks so much Paul! Start now, for coming spring!
Wow, great work! It seemed like it certainly didn't take long for the birds to discover the new treasure set up just for them! Looking forward to more great sightings in 2021!
Thank you very much Wending the world!
Great video ! Today , I went to a little swamp , where there were lots of birds such as white egrets , stone ducks etc ! And can you advise me how to camouflage and tell me some tips for them because I am going to go again , there tomorrow ! Thanks a lot for your beautiful videos , keep shooting !
Thanks so much for watching EVER FF! Good luck tommorow!
Great work Jeroen . I love the idea of the reflection pool really must have a go at that this year in the garden. Some beautiful images to show for it. Look forward to the next one. Cheers Keith
It sure is KG's Photography! Looking forward to seeing yours :)
Wow its looking like a wooden version of Stonehenge from the air you have all the angles covered ! Marvelous coming on really well ! The real art is getting the background right for the size of bird ! Happy New year Mark
Thanks Mark! For me setting up the entire environment is totally new. Learning lots.. More next week!
Very envious of the Bullfinch pictures Jeroen. They are one of my nemesis birds. I never seem to have any luck with them.
Bullfinch, NOT goldfinch. Argh, in the Netherlands we call them goldfinch (but then the Dutch words of course....).
I need to check those names...
I hope I get another chance. As this photo is far from what I hoped a photo looks like...
This is really insightful, I am working on improving my photography and hope I can learn something from your videos!
Glad it was helpful! I am still learning myself. But so nice that it helps others (prevent my mistakes). ;)
Hello Jeroen, thank you for another great video! Can you tell me the rough dimensions of the pool ?
No idea exactly, it is gone now.... But it was about 1,2 meters square I think. It was not that big. If it was permanent, I would have made it bigger. Much longer!
Yes indeed Bullfinch! Nice one Jeroen 👍😊👍
I need to check those English names... :(
Watched all 3 now Jeroen, lovely work and some great ideas.
Glad you like them! One or two more coming up :D
Really great first attempt on the reflection pool! Happy New Year, Jeroen!
Thanks so much Beyond Your Backyard Adventures! For me this type of photography is entirely new. It shows ;)
Great videos about your hide and feed station.
Glad to hear that you enjoyed the video Jon!
Love his excitement when he saw the goldfinch. Amazing photos
Glad to hear that you enjoyed the video Chulani I!
That was very successful, well done and look forward to seeing more.
Glad you enjoyed it! Enjoy your day TheGazzadj.
@@weylintracking-worldwide I did, thank you. you have a great day too!
Great video! thanks.
Amazing video and amazing shots to . Happy new year and all the best for 2021 and looking forward to more amazing videos to watch.
Glad to hear that you enjoyed the video Stuart Dunning! Best wishes for 2021!
Dear Jeroen...Really inspirering! Thank you for sharing your great tips and tricks :-)
Hope they are useful for you Nicolai :) Enjoy your weekend!
Really interesting, and beautiful photos too. It looked like you pushed the shutter button, wouldn't it also be a good idea to use a wire or remote control? Although I didn't notice any unsharpness from shake in the pictures.
I had one with me, you can even see it on the camera... But the batteries were empty :D
Excellent Jeroen love the Goldfinch image, thanks for sharing.
Glad to hear that you enjoyed the video Kingfisher61!
wow wonderful 😍 & lovely birds. Great work sir.
Glad to hear that you enjoyed the video Life With wildlife!
This is very inspirational. Keep up the great work I love you videos.
Glad to hear that you enjoyed the video Mr Wizard!
I really enjoyed this video. I have a natural spring on my farm that I turned into a bird oasis this past summer. I think I am going to redo it this year and make it into something like this and place my hide near it. Thanks
Glad to hear that you enjoyed the video Chris Isaacs Photography! Wish you well with your own project!
'I don't want to sit in a hide and make someone else's photo'. That's a brilliant quote Jeroen and something I agree with. Great vid too.
Thanks John!
Nice work. It seems it didn’t take long for the birds to get use to their new watering hole!
There's not a lot of sheltered water, and it was close to their feeding ground. Quite eager birds :D
Another inspiring video and again you prove you do not have to spend a lot of money. Nice one Jeroen.
So true! Thanks Alan!
