The other day I saw half a dozen hummingbirds just sitting still in a tree and looking at me. You didn't get a camera yet, did you? They mocked me. Well, when you do, you'll never see us again and this magical moment will never happen for you again.
It’s better to get videos of common critters doing uncommon stuff than uncommon critters doing common stuff. Thanks for the great content, you’ve really inspired me to get out into nature with my camera.
I've shot at that "waterfall" spot before too, and it takes a super long time for anything to happen with those salmon. I was handheld with my manual 500mm and it was near impossible. By the time a fish jumped I was nowhere near ready to get the shot lol. Good video Kasey
Honestly, as long as it's a nice composition or the bird is very close, for a detailed view, I don't really care about what it is. 🤷♂ People always tell me, that I should go on a safari, but for me, just going out and seeing what I can find is what makes it fun.

I've just returned home from a cycle tour around Tasmania, with my S1R + Sigma 100-400. In theory a fabulous kit and indeed I've taken some awesome photos. But in practice, due to it's size and weight, it lives in a camera bag that fits neatly and protected in the rear pannier. So I see a bird or nice scene.. gotta stop and find a tree or post to lean my bike against, hop off, open up the pannier, pull out the bag, open it, pull out the Panny & lens, take off the cap, reverse and attach the hood, slip the neck strap over my head 'cuz it's heavy, and... bummer, the bird has long gone! Or other times, the proceedure means I often can't be bothered to make a photo at all. So, I have decided to replace with a G9ii + 50-200 which is small enough to fit in my front handlebar pannier, right there in front of me, instantly accessible. Back to M43 for me. Forget the "full frame better than crop sensor" myth.. getting the shot is better than none at all on the "superior" system! Gear that is light and compact is the practical reality of photography on the move.
I'm a "photographer" that uses a Sony APS-C body. For a year or 2 I was annoyed that if I took a wildlife glass cannon out I would miss out on all the bugs, and if I took a macro lens out I'd miss out on all the bigger critters. UNTIL I found the Tamron 50-400. plenty of reach AND 1:2 (0.5x) macro capabilities. Now I don't have to miss out on either.
That Is what cache recording is used for. Not to be recording for hours of nothing. Just hit record when the action starts and the camera records 10 - 20... seconds before hitting rec.
So I bought all this camera gear. Then had a stroke . But you know there is a few Fig birds in the tree out back. Couldn't even tell was in shot with old eyes and small viewfinder. About 400 frames came out quite nice. Still worth it.
My Sony RX10iii has the feature where you press the record button and it actually captures the previous few seconds before the press in slow motion. That could've worked for capturing salmon jumping! Nice slowmo bird vomit though! 🍄📽
Sweet squirrel footage Kasey!! Those black squirrels look so cool. There's nothing better than hiking to clear the mind and energize the body. I am so lucky because I have so many great hiking areas where I live. I still think it would look cool to put some LEDs inside that microphone and let the light shine out of the slots. Thanks for taking us along. Every time I hike I think about why I'm holding back on shooting video. I just can't seem to pull the trigger on doing it. There seem to be so many obstacles and I haven't yet wrapped my brain around it. Anyway, thanks again and have a great week.
Hi KC, I was thinking of starting a wedding videography business. What do you think about a Gopro 7, or a mid 2010's Nikon Coolpix? I'll record audio separate. Thanks for all your advice.
You probably filmed a Swainson's Thrush at 7:40, not the most common bird - less common than cardinals. Of course visually less impressive... bloody influencers 🤣 (love your vids btw)
Yes, I have noticed so many species of wild life disappeared.😢 I am macro guy, there are less bugs 🐛, bees🐝 , birds 🐦, even people are disappearing 😅, from jibi jabs.
Amazing footage and thanks for sharing your Toronto Safari with us all! Indeed the cinema was ours! Maybe make it more fun, buy a Linen safari outfit with a pit hat! A monopod / walking stick would help too and can be added to your affiliate links. Always entertaining and informative! A Toronto Treasure!
I think your shots of the salmon were cool! The guy who told you the salmon were feeding in that spot was mistaken though lol Salmon can’t physically feed when they spawn. The hormonal change they go through during spawn causes their throats to close, which sadly enough for the salmon, means they slowly rot and starve to death after making babies.
I always get a feeling birds know something is focusing on them. Like an eye changing the glass elements just before an attack is about to happen. Perhaps millions of years of evolution has armed them with a response to such scenarios.
Great footage, at least 2 of em clips were pretty flawless. Good job on the focusing. Dw about species being common, I love Robins! There are two broad ways to do wildlife, "catch em all pokemon style" and "improve on your footage of already catalogued species". Both can be just as fun and challenging! Great robin footage is still better than shitty footage of the rarest birds.
My first "setup" was a Canon 7dMk2 with the 200mm (cause crop sensor). Every time I go out.... nothing. No birds, nothing. Oh, a dragonfly, oh a crow. When I didn't have my camera on me, AN EAGLE WTF!!! So I was like F-it, sold it all, got a 5dMkiii with an 85mm prime and a 50mm prime, and started doing photojournalism for the town newspaper. At least I got paid for that.
That's a Shure Super 55, right? It DOESN'T need phantom power, something else must have been the problem. I think it says dynamic microphone right on the body?
Your mom definitely needs it. Check again, and if your interface has a 2nd input try it in that one without phantom power. Or try the mic with something else that can take a microphone signal without phantom (a camera if you have an 1/8"/XLR adapter).
I can never think of anything to say on camera, so I have reverted to filming squirrels and adding music. I’m a loser, but now I’m a loser with a camera.
I've travelled to several countries quite different from the USA (but Canada and N Korea are my no-go zones) across the world, and despite the different cultures, people are the same. I like to walk through the cities and countryside and observe bugs, animal life, and vegetaion. It's wonderful how different vegetation - taking time to look at it, feel it, smell it. Then I think, have I done that in my Tennessee home?
DJI Action 4 sucks. Potato resolves more in the edges. Nice for getting a BJ in the ocean and filming it while a hungry shark is incoming. What a thrill.

Those cardinals are amazing. Great little creatures to have in your hood.
That throw up scene was hilarious!!

Its why you need the "buffered" slo motion so it stores a second or two continuously.,
Robin shot is amazing! Never seen a robin in my life

You have to respect the iron man patience of wildlife photographers

golden light, mid-noon - best light ever! for highlights and saturation
wow that robin looked beautiful man! And one cannot have too many sparrows in life! :P
Amazing wildlife content, beautiful nature in your country. I'm a depressed wildlife interpreter with a camera in the Wadden Sea 😁
You bring us nothing? No, I say you bring us joy!

Try filming and photographing fungi .....they are magical and they dont move. It'll open up a whole new world for you.

I got a great shot of a squirrel hanging out on my brick fence and I thought to myself, what an amazing suburbia national geographic photo lol 😁
8:41 This is the single funniest thing I’ve seen this week 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I often rent a limousine to my local park it takes the burn away of wanting to stay in a 5 star hotel in Monaco

When I don't have energy, I watch what you have to say which helps me muster up the energy to shoot the cinema on my iPhone.
(preparing to be banned)
Entertainment and health value!

Just bust out a macro lens and make a pokedex of your backyard/garden/park’s bugs.
Wow, Thing Birds, those are rare. I thought I saw one once. It was a just a shoe.
It would be fun to see you do a nature documentary, I mean you kinda do already😂
I always get a feeling birds know something is focusing on them. Like an eye changing the glass elements just before an attack is about to happen. Perhaps millions of years of evolution has armed them with a response to such scenarios.
Can you put an extension tube on the 200 to 600 and see what the macro is like with that setup?
it would't be macro, it would be a 'normal' 600mm magnification.
See Tony & Chelsea rewiev for Sigma 70-200 2.8 - they took extension tube to tests.
@@Fessoid An extension tube makes a lens focus closer (and they can be stacked as well), and the closer a lens focuses, the more "macro" the image.
Great footage, at least 2 of em clips were pretty flawless. Good job on the focusing.

Noble Woodpecker: "Hey, bro! Wanna hear my sick mixtape?"
What a beuatiful title!
Speaking of rats, the bird-rat is a seagull. Rabbits are rats with long ears. Deer are rats with antlers. There are others...
I sold my a6700 and replaced with Pocket 3. Is that stupid, don’t answer that.
Didn’t realize how smart you were until I heard you pronounce cardinal with 3 syllables and not 2.
this guy is going to film the first non-blurry bigfoot
Do reviews of anamorphic lenses. Need some anamorphic squirrel videos in my boring life.
Not sure about that click bait title but I think we all need to explore close to home!
I came for the chupacabra. I left disappoint.
6:52 😂
The perfect throw up 🤮 😂😂
The day your video provides me zero content, I will let you know.
Today was not one of those days.
The word "litten" is a running gag, like toneh and stabe, right? Right??
It sounds too perfect not to be a word :)
Normally, I'll turn bird documentaries off but your footage is quite relaxing. I think it's because it's all slomo.
I can never think of anything to say on camera, so I have reverted to filming squirrels and adding music. I’m a loser, but now I’m a loser with a camera.

@@nicedward7544 Not as bad as NK, but Justin Castro is trying his best to make it so.
@@nicedward7544 I thought TN was bad until relocating to FL. FL is freaking dumpster fire. Now I'm wandering abroad.
It’s not a bird. It’s a plane.
DJI Action 4 sucks. Potato resolves more in the edges. Nice for getting a BJ in the ocean and filming it while a hungry shark is incoming. What a thrill.
Close focus filter blurs the edges.
I’ve asked Santa for the GH7 for Christmas this year. Is it a coincidence that Santa and Satan used the same letters? Maybe I should ask Satan, too.
That mic isn't even real. Did you make it in Blender? Your compositing needs some work.
its better when you film other stuff cuz you still have nothing to say
Imma lot of kinds of losers, but not "wildlide losers!" I do own 8 cats and a couple of dogs, though! Does that count?
Er, that was a dragonfly, not a butterfly! There seems to be a bit of a Kasey obsession with animal sex 😂
