Thanks very much Raymond, it’s a lovely spot with some great species to be seen. I’m looking forward to doing a winter visit in the snow. I’m glad you like the way I do things, and appreciate the comment. All the best and happy new year. Cheers Richard 👍
Pascale just watched - she asked me to comment on her behalf - she was amazed at a) the professionalism of the video and b) your knowledge of all around you - even though some of the species were new to you. She says "Wow."
Thanks very much to you both and I am very glad she liked it. My thanks to you for showing me the place. I had a good session there today, a slow start but it got much better toward sunset. Cheers Matt👍
Hi Rich, another great video, that spot is certainly a wildlife oasis 👍 loving the autumn colours around you too. Nice video and stills Mate. Thanks as always for bringing me along 📸
Glad you enjoyed it Lee, it's such a great spot with lots and lots of wildlife, I've been back a few times with great success. Another video out from there very soon with a few new species. Cheers R👍
Thanks for the info David, I did some research when I got home and found out it was the same bird, lol... Lots of Northern Harrier in next weeks video plus a few other great birds. Cheers Rich 👍
How great to have all those different habitats in such a short area. You are going to be spoilt for choice over there. Love the way you just throw in a Golden Eagle in the conversation as if it's an everyday thing 😂. Excellent video mate.
Yeah, a Goldie going over! Like it happens all the time😂. I've been back since and it's producing some nice birds and mammals. Cheers for watching mate. 👍
I can't believe it is still warm there. We are 1000 miles south of you and we have been in the 30s and 40s for a month or so. It gets warm later in the day but cool in the mornings. We are starting to get a lot of migratory geese here now. Enjoying the videos from Canada. There are many UK photographers on YT but not nearly so many from North America.
I know it's been crazy warm really! But it's now much colder Phillip so I think that might be it for this years weird warmth. Lovely, I do enjoy this time of year when the birds arrive, very exciting. Thanks I'm really glad you are enjoying them, it would be nice to push my videos out to the North American audience but it's going slow ,so far, lol... Still for the ones that have started watching my channel I've been really pleased to get to know them better. Thanks for your support it really is great to get to speak to new people. Cheers Rich 👍
Just curious Rich, ever considered doing some sort of webinar or on-line presentation for photography clubs to get your name and channel out there? Not sure about UK but in U.S., each city has a photography club and they are often looking for guest speakers, some in person, some via on-line. The club here has had several on-line speakers on editing, macro, landscape, etc., but I don't recall us ever having a speaker about bird photography. It seems on-line talks/presentations have become popular since Covid. it typically involves a 30 minute or so talk, slideshow, demo, and then time for Q&A. Just thinking that may be a way to begin getting some spread in U.S at least. Just a thought.
@@philipculbertson55 Thanks very much for that Phillip as it's a great idea. It's something I used to do back in the UK but haven't looked at doing it here in Canada. Have you any good clubs I could approach in the US? If not I am sure I can find out. Thanks again for your help I really appreciate it. Cheers Rich
Hi Richard, another place you may want to visit is Downsview Park. You will see red tailed hawk, kestrel and harrier. Right now there are several long eared owl. If youre lucky, you will also see short ear and saw whet. Good luck
Thanks for the tip Roland, I've been there many times now and was astonished at how much wildlife can be found there! From a guy who lives in the remote part of the UK it shocked me to be honest but lovely to see nature working alongside humans in such a busy place. I've got a video out from there next week where I cover a few of those species. Welcome to the channel and thanks for taking the time to leave a helpful comment. Cheers Rich 👍
Nice one Rich, that lake looks to be on another scale!!! There seems to be a great selection of subjects over there mate, raptors galore and getting some great weather too. You'll need those thermals I reckon soon !!🤣 All the best, Si
Thanks mate, I've since been back and it's a great spot to see quite a range of species. Yep, the cold weather gear is certainly ready to go. Cheers Rich 👍
Absolutely amazing variety of wildlife especially the birds,I see the Canada geese down at Godrevy quite often here in the UK as you probably know.Really enjoyed the video son 🦅🦅👍👍
Great location just funny to hear you say & see chipmunk 🐿️! Nearly forgot your in Canada 🇨🇦!! Lol !! Just amazing location such wildlife all around you !! Really enjoying these latest posts !! Respect!! Take care 👍
Cheers Craig, I know and a very cute animal is is, lol..Got a good one out next Sunday, but I do need to find you some Deer, I heading to a good spot tomorrow so fingers crossed I'll see some. Cheers Rich 👍
@@RichardBirchett ya look forward to that day 🦌!!! Mate you’re doing well out there , a joy to watch !! Must be hard work starting again in a new country!! Cheers craig
Hi Richard wow that’s amazing place the verity of wildlife was fantastic, not far from where you are living to it’s great finding a new location and getting to know it, certainly got an abundance of wildlife there do you have to pay or get National Parks permit out there?,I’m just amazed at how of the stunning landscape and the fall colours for a recce video that was amazing thank you for sharing it with us. Martyn
Cheers Martyn, it's nice to finally find some new spots and new species. I've got lots more coming up very soon, I've now switched my day to Sunday as it's been recommended to me as a better day. In the major Parks like Algonquin you need permits to visit if you are parking up or staying there, if you are driving through then it's okay. The ones in the city only charge parking so it's quite decent. It's such a vibrant time of the year, be winter soon and it's getting colder. cheers Rich 👍
At 7:16, the Canada Goose in the left of the picture has a short neck. It wasn’t a Cackling Goose, was it? It does look a bit big for Cackling but curious what you think.

Cheers Mike, heading there tomorrow for the day! Hope to see lots of Birds of Prey all being well. Thanks for watching. Rich 👍
Richard, marsh hawk is a name that some people use for northern harrier. Thanks for another great video!
Thanks for the info David, I did some research when I got home and found out it was the same bird, lol... Lots of Northern Harrier in next weeks video plus a few other great birds. Cheers Rich 👍

That's a cool place Richard! We don't have swan down here in North Georgia, so those are great to see. Thanks for bringing us along!
Glad you enjoyed it Jon, that's a real shame but I'd imagine you've got some pretty good birds though? My pleasure, all the best Rich 👍
Great video Richard. The colour's and wildlife there is wonderful you must feel very lucky to have such a spot close to you.
Absolutely Roger, I never thought there would be so much close to my home! Looking forward to sharing it with you next Sunday. Cheers Rich
Nice one 👍 Can't believe how relaxed the wildlife is there!!!
Cheers mate, It really is much easier than at home! Wait until next weeks, lol... Cheers Rich 👍
Absolutely amazing variety of wildlife especially the birds,I see the Canada geese down at Godrevy quite often here in the UK as you probably know.Really enjoyed the video son 🦅🦅👍👍

I don't think so and it could be the angle I shot it at. I'll check the rest of the footage out. Thanks very much for watching. All the best Rich 👍
