I Missed a Great Opportunity with the Badgers

- Hi everyone! It is time to visit the badger location where I put up the trail cameras and it is also time to start my photo project next to the live stream.
It is summer in Denmark, and I kind of feel I have too many things to do. Not only do I have my projects related to nature and wildlife photography, but I also have a lot of projects on my farm.
This time my dad and I are working in the garden so that I can grow my own vegetables and I am also trying to attract more wildlife to my garden by doing a bit of rewinding.
My intention with these vlogs is to give you an insight in my life as a professional wildlife photographer and all the things behind.

Hi there I hope you are having a wonderful Sunday:) So 3 things!
1. The video is uploaded in 4K so I hope it will be ready at some point in that resolution.
2. My channel is apparently under attack of some kind of spam, so just remember - I do not write you about a great prize or a giveaway - I am not that kind of nice guy;)
3. Thank you so much for every single one of your beautiful comment. It is so much more encouraging that you might think. I wish everyone a wonderful day.
See you out there...
Fix this comment on the video so everybody can see it
Your channel is not the only one being spammed by scammers. It's a real problem right now.
Glad you sorted the spammers / scammers out Morten.
Pity about the Sony A7 RIV - but, if I'm honest, I'd have ended up selling it and putting the money towards a 600PF!
After watching your videos where you go into a hide? I ordered a great inexpensive one man hunting tent! Then I got the cloth and put up the tent out back on my home. Birds began landing on it and it was funny. 5 birds were walking around it in the rain. I can't wait til tomorrow when the sun comes out to enjoy taking pics in it. I also have to weigh down the ends because I have it on a wood deck facing the water one way and my huge dogwood tree in full bloom with another window...the other window faces my gazebo where hummingbirds fly into the Jasmine blooming now!
I'm 14 years old, and thanks to you Morten, I got into wildlife photography. Now I spend almost any free time outdoors, taking pictures and watching animals. I thank you for this and wish you health and success in your work and your mission, someday I will join you!
That's amazing start doing some camera skill and in your 20year you will far
@@Mariokibet-ov7re thank you very much for your support!
good for you. I started later in life and happy I did. filming and photographing nature and animals has been amazing to see the moments we miss in our daily lives.
Dear Morten, I just can't express my gratitude for all the beautiful stories you share. This video brought me my best memories from childhood when I was spending the whole summer outside in a nature at the countryside at my grandparents place and watched the nature documentaries on TV. Now wildlife photography is my greatest passion and throughout the years you had a great impact on it. The ethics, the knowledge and the passion you gave and taught me are of great value to me. You are a true friend and my hero. Love, Mateusz 😊
Thank you so much Mateusz for sharing your memories. And thank for such a lovely comment and a great compliment.
Some people want to win the lottery. Others just want to be Morten Hilmer 😁😉👍
Could you maybe make a video showing how you got started, you know in the small days and what you did between then and now? Where you grew up, how you became more known and so on? I know you have touched upon it a little before but a full video would be awesome :)
Hi Joe. So nice with a comment from you. I hope you are having a great time. By the way. Could you send me a PM with a link to that radio interview with you. I missed it that day.
Yes I can make such a video one day. It is maybe a good idea.
Take care. All the best
We all want to be Morten Hilmer. Just not everybody know it yet :)
@@MortenHilmer I cant imagine anyone on this planet would have a bad word to say about you - a rare gift!
Honestly it wasn't very good. I felt a bit rushed so answered the questions a bit rushed to not bore everybody. Also I'm not using Instagram anymore as I have decided its not for photographers and not a platform I want to be part of :)
I love videos like this showing Morten in his “natural” habitat living his life, seeing his day to day activities and his daily interactions. Not only do we see him working in the field but also a bit of his personal life and his relationship with his father. I feel very privileged to be able to enjoy these videos. Thank you very much!
These vlogs are the best day in my life vedios on youtube
You give us inspiration, Morten. I am an older man; I won't tell you how old. But in all my years, I am beginning to understand that it is the small things that bring happiness. Nature is such a healer, and you always manage to show us what is important in life. My gratitude.
Bro ur videos is like out of the world. The background music you use, drone shoots, voice over everything is sooo perfect. I can watch 2-3 hour long video without getting bored. Keep it up the good work and try to make more long videos. Love you❤️
Morten, your appreciation for every small thing nature gives you is really appealing. I think your enthusiasm shines throughout your videos, and that is your main appeal. Good work.
I'm glad your Dad's back is still holding up. No guarantees as we get in our 70s and 80s but it makes me feel good inside to see other's able to function well.
Morten I really liked the whole preparation and interaction for blind photography with so detail work ...Liked Dear.
Tanks you nature lover. You did grate job in your Chanel man.
I love this channel . Thank you Morten!
It was just a beautiful video... It was just so relaxing watching everything... It was a long video but kept me glued to the screen from start to finish...
Thank’s for slowing the pace of a busy life. I enjoy having a coffee with you.
Hello Morten, my name is Ted and I'm a new subscriber as of today, now the 4th of July. I live in Sebastian, Florida and as I write this it is 8pm and I hear the fireworks outside as my town celebrates our Nations Independence Day . I love your videos and hope to see more in the near future. I am primarily a high school sport photographer, senior photos and the like but am getting interested in nature photography. I've been watching a U tuber named "Trond Wesby" who is also amazing. Thanks for your wonderful channel. Oh yes, I just received my Nikon Z9 as a NPS member, super excited. Take care.
You hit the nail on the head. II’ve hit four local spots I found recently and 3 of them were a total bust. The last one was a success and gives me a lot of hope for later. Lots of ducks, hatchlings, and very few people. As a new wildlife photographer, I cant thank you enough for your content.
Every video it's like a dream, thnaks Morten
I have a very similar blind. My wife installed zippers in the screen for the camera lens. They work very well.
FELICIDADES, MORTEN ... Hay un dicho que dice ... "la suerte es muy amiga del esfuerzo y la preparación" ... sin duda, tu constancia, tu ilusión, tu interés reciben su recompensa. Saludos desde Vilassar de Mar!
Watching Your videos is like watching a Lord of the Rings movies, absolutely beautiful and relaxing.
Dear Morton ,thank you so much for this video . I learn a lot about the wind, the smell, how to photography (how to do, the position...). I never see this little forest bear(his surmane in France ) but I hope so much. I don't have enough Iso but only to see him , I will be happy. Thank you for the partage. 🙏🙏
Morten, thank you for your video!!! They are great! Make a short video about the behind the scenes of filming, how you shoot, what you write the sound for, how much time it takes... It's very interesting! Thank you very much!!!!
Brilliant! I could almost feel your excitement.
Another great video love seeing what you do behind the scenes. Looking forward to your next adventure
Beautiful, thanks 🦋🌸🦋
Hello Mr.Hilmer
I hapened to have exact same photoblind(well,it's actually designed for hunters).
I have it for years now and last october i set this up near Fox den(not really fox only.Everyone likes this den.Linx,Badgers,Racoons,Deers)
This tent can handle all the storms and thick snow,cause it has anchor ring on the roof as well,so snow wont breake it.
Just a tip for you.Theres way to leave microphone outside of tent with longer cable. So mic dosnt pick up noise but only whats hapening outside.
You welcome.
it shows you passionate for nature. respect 🫡
As a side note to yet another amazing video. The editing, story telling and pacing to this video is really well done. Such an easy and good watch and in a way there was even a climax of an ending with the badger sighting. Actually gives me joy watching these homely videos.
Such a fantastic video, and great to see you and your dad planting together, he seems fitter than most 20 year olds!
I really like the way you're...... nature is so beautiful......
You are on a whole another level in video creation, no flashy music or b-roll just peace and pure nature. Literally a heaven who love nature. Keep up your great work- love your work❤️
What a compliment. Thank you so much 🙏
I just love it! I didn't get bored even for a second on this video. I like what you are doing! And you are my biggest inspiration in wildlife photography. Everybody should be so humble with nature just like you...
Your video will always give me inspiration and motivation for my hobby of photographing birds and wild animals. Thanks for sharing this amazing video. Big Like for you. Greeting from Singapore.
Excellent, so good to see behind the scenes again, thank you for all the work you put into these, it is much appreciated.
Dear Morten you live my dream and i love all your videos !! Best regards from Austria :) Love
Hi Morten, Thank you for sharing your life with me, (us). You bring my life up a notch through your calm, your enthusiasm, your joy and your peaceful ...yet exciting nature and wildlife experiences! I love it! See you out there, I hope some day! Canada
I know Mother Earth is a living being. I hope your efforts bring Her joy, and that that joy spreads throughout our planet. Thank you 🙏🏼🤗.
Hello Morten, thanks for your wonderful videos. It's always a pleasure to watch one of your videos... Beautiful recordings, great pictures... pure relaxation. Thank you for your work and for letting us be a part of it and also for the many tips and a look behind the scenes. You inspire to imitate. Hope we will see a lot more from you. hp Maybe you can recommend a camera for nature photography.... for absolute beginners.... would be very grateful 😊. Thank you again for your great work. Greetings Michael
Beautiful. What a great story teller. Well done
It's so nice to see you helping nature and enjoy every moment! Can't wait to see the next episode!
Great story you filmed in this video, thanks for the emotions you share with us. Its a pleasure to follow your stories
Lovely video Morten! Nice to see Milton again and what a lovely farm you have! Thanks for sharing your great experiences , Benni.😊👍
A wonderful video as always Morten! I really enjoyed seeing what else you get up to around your farm and the wildlife seen too 😊 you're definitely right when you don't always get the photo you imagined, but the experience of being in nature always makes me happy!
Congratulations. I love what you do. I admire you 😁
Thank you for another brilliant video Morten. It's great seeing you out and about on your wonderful farm and the rewilding work you are doing. Your videos are the highlight of our evening and we can't wait until your next episode. Thank you once again. Andy and Clare
thank you for these unique and magical moments👍
👍🏻☺👍🏻Just the right type of video many of us need these days. Peaceful, nature goodness... vs the madness of that russian monster👹 who is currently causing so much sufferings for so many... That guy should watch your videos, it could turn him into an actual human beeing who values life 🌱🦉🌿🦊🌾🐦over his own ego. 📷🔭🐾
fabulous video, enjoyed every mint, looking forward to the next adventure.
Love watching your videos Morten, it's like therapy for photographers. Relax and drink coffee in a photo tent. Just perfect I can't wait for morning now. Kind regards to you and your father. 📷😀
Morten Hilmer - sie sind ein wunderbarer Mensch! DANKE für all ihre Arbeit! Liebe Grüße aus Österreich!
Dear Morten, My wife and I bought a land in the nature for our retirement. Your video encompasses perfectly our dream : me taking photos of the animals and my wife gardening. Not sure I’ll have your talent and patience to produce so beautiful images and stories, but you truly are an inspiration. Love from Canada.
Really beautiful farm. Byorn is probably the happiest dog on earth.
Thank you again for this awesome video! You inspire me a lot and I have a great calming feeling after watching your videos.
Can’t wait for your next videos! Keep it up! :)
Great Video Morten, I'm already looking forward to a part two hopefully 👍🏻
Such a peaceful place where you live, you are very lucky! 🙏
First class entertainment Morten. Thanks for all the effort you put into making these great videos.
Great to see your Father in another video with you.👍
I hope the Marten stays away from the barn.
Outstanding ! Your videos keep getting better and are most inspiring - Thank you !
Great video Morten! Thank you 🙏
That was so interesting. Thank you for showing us all you do in your life with your farm.
I love your enthusiasm for the nature and animals and helping the nature to renew.
Just wow ...beautiful as usual ..what a beautiful atmosphere
Beautiful video Morten. Thank you for taking the time to share your wonderful stories.
Beautiful as always Morten. It's so inspiring seeing all your projects from the rewilding of your land to your photography. I really enjoy these vlogs!
Wow, what an inspiring video once again. Well done Morten! 👍🏻 The photos and videos of the badger are incredible! Probably they are not the best but that doesn’t matter. Your experience is the most important thing. You have to enjoy the encounter with this beautiful animals. A few days ago I was out in nature in the evening. I found a deer with two fawns. I wasn’t able to take any photos or videos because there were to many branches between me and the animals. I just enjoyed this beautiful encounter and I think that’s the most important thing in nature photography! Of cours it’s always nice to capture such an experience on a memory card but that’s not always possible.
Keep up the good work, your videos are inspiring me every single time again to go out and shout new RUclips videos. Stay healthy and see you out there
Greetings Max
Really enjoyed this. Thank you👍😊👍
What a wonderful video,can't wait to see the next one .
I usually don`t watch videos for that long. But yours are so fascinating, I just have to see them.
I love these videos around your farm. As a contemporary of your father’s, there is nothing so rewarding as working beside your children!
A wonderful video as always Morten!!!
Telling about myself but I feel that everyone who watches Morten hilmer videos regularly they Do have a very deep and an emotional connect with nature. be it the wildlife aspect or just the so-called non living aspects, deeply we all want to live like Morten does. it's not that his life is easy ,it has different challenges like he told in the beginning of the video but all of them are somewhere connecting you back to your roots of nature and that are the same roots that the westernization and the modernisation and the technology have uprooted
It's my entrance exam tomorrow and after that I will be taking your short break before the next exam and going out into the mountains to photograph birds and hunt for the Milky Way I am proud to is kept it about the Milky Way because in India we have monsoons beginning but definitely I'll get to see and photograph awesome Birds wildlife and landscapes
See you out there
Beautiful written - thanks for sharing your thoughts Madhav.
Wonderful video, Morten! It's a real pleasure to watch you working and following your passion
Hurray! You saw the badger!! Well worth all the preparation! I share the excitement you feel when I sit in my hide for hours and finally fox kits peek out of their den!
Hvor er du bare en super fantastisk inspiration. Også at se danmark fra dit objektiv. Fantastisk 🥰🇩🇰
Such such and inspiration. Also to people who are stuck, wanting to change their lives. I can only imagine. All of your videos. Thank you 😇🇩🇰
Tusind tak Trina

Thank you for taking us along on your adventures!
Best wishes,
Steve
Thank you Morten! Another amazing and lovely video documenting your amazing adventures! looking forward to your next one! Sending greetings from NYC!!!!!! ;).
Beautiful....Thank you.
Love this video. Thank you for sharing your home and your plans for its nature and its wildlife in the future. Thank you for sharing a bigger picture of the area around your L/S. Looking forward to the next video.
Oh, what an exciting video.
I really loved it how you are doing this and take us to your world to be a part of your life.
Thank you Morten, we dream and you materialize our dreams.
Simply Beautiful. It was amazing to see the Live spot from other angles. Thanks @Morten Hilmer. Brilliant video 👌🏼👌🏼
What a journey of life! Morten, you inspire me with your videos. Love ya brother 👏🏻👏🏻
Great video, thanks,
I just love this video and want to thank you for inviting us to your daily activities. You are a great example to so many people regarding your love and passion for nature and the work you do.
You love for nature and wildlife is immense
These videos are my favourite. Reminds me when I first watched your youtube video a few years ago. The passion you shower us always inspires me to be a better photographer. Excited to see the footage you get of the badger on your property over the next few months.
Dear Morten Hilmer!
I get fantastic experiences from your videos.
Your pictures are wonderful, your behaviour in nature is exemplary.
There are always a few surprises in his films.
He has created a miniature universe on his farm.
I can only write the best about what he does and how he does it.
May you always be happy on your wonderful farm.
Best regards, Dr. Zoltán Dobány, from Hungary.
"The Zen and the art of Photoblind" ... thanks for these wonderful videos !!!
Dear Morten, another great video. I came here to learn about wildlife photography, but I went back learning a lot more than that.
I love the humility, the care you have towards nature and the immense amounts of will.
Keep being that shining halo of light for the rest of us. We look up to you for it.
Yet another great video and great to see the relationship you have with your Dad. Lost mine when I was nineteen precious memories you’ll cherish forever.
How a missed opportunity translates to a near 40min of visual pleasure! Well done Morton I could watch your content for hours its like being sat out in nature and being relaxed. Thank you for making such great content
Wonderful Morten. Just wonderful
This all looks like a happy life to me! I'm curious what's happening next. Have a great time out there!
Thank you for sharing-along with your spectacular successes-that even a great wildlife photographer can also miss a photo, and that is just an opportunity to learn and make a different plan. Your badger photos here were wonderful, but for me I also sometimes love my photos of great times with the wild ones, even if they are not perfect. It is always so good to be out there, and there is always something to see and memories to take home. And thank you for taking good care of your little piece of paradise. :)
Outstanding story ...and I think the photos of the Badger were outstanding.....better than 99% of what everyone else got! Excellent video quality, editing, and music. Great story of real life.
Well done Morten, I look forward to see more of the badgers. We are luck here in Wiltshire, England; we have plenty of badgers 🦡 but it good to see your going through the process of getting in to a good position.
Thank you. Brilliant as always. Stay well. All the very best. Cheers 🍻. 👍🐾📷🐾😎
Dear Morten,
This is an incredibly great little insight into life on your farm and once again a fascinating experience of your wildlife photography. Congratulations for being able to see the badgers directly at this spot and - despite the darkness - taking wonderful pictures. I am curious to see what else you will experience and what you will have in front of your camera. Thanks for sharing this great moment! See you out there
Best wishes,
Vivi
