- I ventured away from my home patch to Plum Island, one of my favorite birding spots. I was able to find breeding Piping Plovers and Least Terns, Bobolinks, and many other species.
To see a list of all 49 species that I saw, you can view my eBird checklist at the link below:

I'm 78 now, spent time in this area as a child, much loved by my Dad for family day trips. Very early memory of making sandwiches with him, wrapping them in waxed paper, knowing a special day was ahead. He didn't make sandcastles at the beach -- he made child-sized sports cars! So thank you Mr. Birder for bringing those happy times back to me this morning!
I’m glad my video was able to rekindle those memories! Thanks for sharing that story.
Your work is amazing and I love how you let the name of the bird and the shots of the birds stay up on the screen long enough to really experience their uniqueness. Very calming, very beautifully captured. Thank you for sharing these!! Just subscribed so I don't miss anything!
Thank you very much, Claire!
Lovely video. I go to Parker River often but am not a skilled photographer and videographer like you. Thank you for sharing!,,❤
Thank you, Ann! Glad you enjoyed the video.
Great video. Excellent stills . 👏🏿👏🏻👏🏾👍
Speaking of Orioles, Singapore 🇸🇬 has the Black-naped Orioles, which is a local resident bird.
Great photos of the Least Terns in flight. Thanks for sharing them.
Thank you, Steven. I was very happy with them too. I finally remembered to adjust the shutter speed before taking flight shots and it really helped.
Also in the New Territories, we have Cattle Egrets, Lesser Egrets, and Greater Egrets as well at the waterfront promenade.
What a peaceful video
Love it there! Amazing birds. It’s really quiet & beautiful! Used to rent a house there for 2 weeks every summer. I really miss it. It’s only 1 hour from my house.
It’s about an hour for me as well, and definitely with the drive!
New subscriber here! I’m also from the north east, and have always been interested in birding. Your videos are so relaxing! Ty!

Nice video
We have Pacific Swifts in the New Territories of Hong Kong 🇭🇰 SAR.
Just started working at a local mom and pop bird seed shop in Kansas City a few months ago. I had no idea how involved and nuanced birding is. I've learned so much in just 3 months! I just found your channel the other day, and I have to say you're doing a great job! The couple videos I've seen thus far have been very interesting and fun to watch. Keep it up!
Glad you are enjoying my videos! It sounds like you may be becoming a birder 😊
@@JT_Birder oh, that's a definite yes 😂
👍👍
I live near waterways in MA. I’ve seen the blue Heron, the Cormorant and yr round geese. Yearly we have a nesting Killdeer in the community garden. I doubt I will ever see Plum IS. I’ll ask my dau if she had had the chance to see it. There a very vocal sm bird with blue wings that flys to dip or graze the water. I wish I knew what it is.
I hope you get to visit Plum Island, it’s a neat place. The bird might be a tree or barn swallow?
Don’t go to the one in Connecticut tho, a different experience altogether awaits anyone going ashore there🤣
Yeah for sure, although I bet there are birds there too :)
Very nice video captures. Equipment used?
Thanks, Milton. I use a Canon R7 camera with the Canon 200-500 mm zoom lens.
Hello
Will you be going to plum island soon?
Can I join you?
What Camera/ lens used here? Nice vid!
Thank you, Ross. I use a Canon R7 camera with the Canon 200-500 mm zoom lens.
Probably where the bird flu started
Birds are reptiles
Speaking of Orioles, Singapore 🇸🇬 has the Black-naped Orioles, which is a local resident bird.
Wow… nice capture of the purple martins! Bravo on your Ebird checklist.
