Our son loves your videos! He's only 8 months but no dancing fruit in this house lol.Thank you so much for sharing your passion and for giving us chance to do housework! We end up watching too on evenings 💚
Excellent as ever! Here's the segue; "as you can see here, sometimes water voles PERCH on the river bank; and now; the PERCH!".. Hoping you, Mrs Liam and the little 'un are all doing well. Nice one Liam. 🌟👍
i once herd a weird irregular ticking sound right by my head, when i looked there was a large yellow and black dragonfly eating a wasp. i have loved them since!
A couple of years ago I saw a kingfisher perched on a small branch above the burn that runs round my garden . I was crossing the bridge at the time and was able to gaze down onto it from a distance of less than 3 metres. Haven't seen one since and a big flood last November carried away the thin branch it was sitting on.
A very interesting video - love to see mayflies and the beautiful demoiselles at this time of year. As always, I learned more new wildlife facts! Thanks for sharing!
A well presented video Liam, I thoroughly enjoyed this. The only fish I ever caught was a perch but I was more interested in railways than fishing and 66 years later that is still the case. 😀
Thanks for adding the Latin names. I live in the Netherlands, so the ecosystem is very similar, and your videos are a great way to learn more about the wildlife here. But I sometimes find it hard to figure out which animal you're talking about exactly. It seems that the more common a species is, the greater the regional difference in names. Fortunately, the Latin makes it easy to find more information.
Great video! I used to cross a river on my walk to school and would always stop to marvel at the massive chubb swimming around under the bridge, would regularly see decent sized pike sat motionless next to the reeds too!
Yes Ted Hughes ...the pike is a fish of legend...and there is also the book about the salmon Salar by Henry Williamson..a fine writer about nature and rivers
Otters are the best, I pointed a couple out to a lady walking down the road by the river last year and she was so happy. Not many things effect people as much as wildlife in that way.
Thank you for your very interesting Videos. However I have one complaint, the back ground music is getting too loud form me to hear clearly what you are saying. Thanks for your consideration. Ed a subscriber.
Thanks Ed. I think the laptop I edit on doesn't have the best speakers as for me the music is really quiet. I will have it at a lower volume next time. Cheers
It's a shame that the minnows have disappeared from the small river in Lindford, Bordon in Hampshire which has led to no more Kingfishers, a disappearance of many many large trout and perch. And this has been the case for quite a few years now. Most likely due to pollution.
Great clip, but where’s the big hitters? Salmon,trout, Barbel, and the ever problematic signal crayfish, big problem along the Colne valley rivers. European crayfish have declined in numbers.
Thank you. I am going to do a second version of this for faster flowing water which will feature all of those, except signal crayfish which I should have put in this one.
Watched a Kingfisher catching fish while i was fishing(he caught more than me )he then landed on my rod tip but flew off as i reached for my phone ,i was gutted it would of been a great photo
There should be a wide range of fish species and yes more otters as well as insect life .Its wonderful to see otters and I can remember water voles HOWEVER it is unfortunately and scandalously all threatened by sewage release by water companies and modern intensive agriculture pollution and water abstraction and urbanisation..compounded by lack of care and inaction by the Environment agency Only 14% of English and Welsh rivers are in a good environmental state Much care and work by river trusts and others is helping .A mayfly hatch on a chalkstream is a fine thing to behold, watching a dipper feed or a salmon try to get up a waterfall. All worth conserving and more for our natural heritage and our children Being beside a river is wonderful for mental health...( says this angler of 53 years) Simon Artley

Bloody brilliant video!
Thank you!
Interesting video, thanks for sharing 😀👍
Another excellent video
Interesting video thank you for sharing ❤
I saw a Kingfisher last autumn. I hope to see it again sometime
I normally hear them before I see them.
Great video Liam, appreciated the segues.
Cool video Liam…. as mentioned by others, the fish species here take you back when we were kids exploring and fishing our waterways ☺️👍
Really enjoyed this one Liam, I love being beside rivers, canals etc with all the wildlife that goes with.
Thank you
Nice film. It amazes me how little a lot of people know about the life in our waterways.
Thank you, there is so much life if people just take a look.
We were very surprised to see a beautiful kingfisher on the Welsh Coast! Another superb and absorbing video x
A well presented video Liam, I thoroughly enjoyed this. The only fish I ever caught was a perch but I was more interested in railways than fishing and 66 years later that is still the case. 😀
thank you Liam I so enjoyed your video
Thanks Liam, that was lovely ❤

Whenever I think of pike, I think of Ted Hughes' hypnotic poem about them.
I always think of 'Dad's Army'.
Yes Ted Hughes ...the pike is a fish of legend...and there is also the book about the salmon Salar by Henry Williamson..a fine writer about nature and rivers
Cool

Lived near a river when growing up, loved ❤

Excellent video, would love to see you do Scottish highland rivers.
Awersome.
Brilliant video.
I’d love to see you go owling (looking for owls) as I have done it and it is amazing
more please
5:16 Otter!
Great vlog 👍. How's fatherhood 👍
Are the murkier videos the latest ones with all the sewage in?
my favourite is the kingfisher with electric blue and orange
Thanks i learnt alot in this one .Has ur daughter arrived now ?
Thank you. She has indeed, she's 3 weeks old today :) I'm sure she will be featured in a wildlife walk soon enough.
@@AShotOfWildlife aww how lovely congratulations 🎉 look fwd to seeing her ❣️

Hi daddy liam ❤❤❤ how r u ❤❤❤❤ thank u ❤❤❤
I’ve seen a pike eating frog spawn
There's also the unicorns and dragons I know y'all are hiding over there and I will find one day.
The title should read what wildlife is left in britains rivers.
what you really see >>> turds, plastic bottles dog poo bags used nappies bottles food cartons and turds mainly turds
Eel 😂
@5.36 , "dramatic" ?
Would love to spot a water vole.
Ive got a chubby watching this 😂
Must be difficult being a kingfisher trying to work out if the underside of the beak of it's potential partner is orange or black
Ahhhhh. A new Shot of Wildfire. Just what the doctor ordered
Thank you, happy to be of service!

Sometimes you use metric, sometimes you use imperial. Make your mind up and be consistent.
_REALLY_ stoned wildlife lives in UK rivers.
What lives in UK lowland rivers? Sadly and criminally, these days, it’s mostly bacteria and viruses.
Noting but shit in the rivers in England.
Lol, although there's way too much sewage in our rivers, there are still plenty of fish in most of them.
