AUSTRALIAN BIRDS Birding Coastal Victoria by Alana and Greg Dare

[@alibenkahn5092]

Another fantastic video! Good to see Mallacoota recovering. Thanks!

[@alanadare7052]

Yes. It was the most satisfying aspect of the trip after the horror of that summer.

[@sheetalkothari6718]

I have seen your many videos so far….they are fantafabulous

[@alanadare7052]

Thank you

[@iangibson5996]

As avid birders on the Sunshine Coast we always enjoy your productions. Very professional and informative. Always look forward to your next edition.

Greetings from Nova Scotia, Canada. Good to see you're back with a new video. We found your videos great for learning some of the birds before our 2018 trip to Australia. Hopefully we'll be back again in a couple of years and we'll watch them all over again before we do.

[@alanadare7052]

Really happy that our films are helpful.

[@WildCaught73]

Amazing video! I aspire to know my birds like you guys do 😊

[@alanadare7052]

Thank you

[@sylvainmathieu3887]

What a captivating video! I've been to Australia in 2022 and I haven't seen half of what you showed in this tour. Probably because I was there at the end of the south hemisphere winter? I wish I've been following your steps to add a lot of lifers! Thanks for showing the marvelous birds of Australia.

[@mattmatty4670]

Cool thanks mate

[@andrewkeir2282]

As a resident of South Gippsland and having done the coastal trip across to Adelaide a few times I really enjoyed this video. I love the Yaratinga Wetlands, we spent a few days there at the Bird Photography Conference at Hahndorf this year. You have identified a few more spots I must visit

[@alanadare7052]

You live in a beautiful birding area. We didn't have enough time there.

[@Daniel_Oberg]

Impressive work! 👏🏼 Thanks for sharing! Greetings from a Swedish youtuber! 🇸🇪

[@UmaPandiyan-ls5nx]

Enjoyed bird watching through your lens and the commentary was well paced and informative too.

[@alanadare7052]

Thank you

[@Parroting_Australia234]

So happy to see a new video from one of the best birding channels out there!

[@alanadare7052]

Thanks. I'm still trying to convince Greg to do a film on parrots only. We have good film of all except Princess Parrot.

[@Parroting_Australia234]

@@alanadare7052 Wow! That's actually really impressive. Even Norfolk Island green parakeet and night parrot?

[@alanadare7052]

@@Parroting_Australia234 No we have not seen the night parrot, thanks

[@Parroting_Australia234]

@@alanadare7052 They are the holy grail of twitchers and ornithologists alike, a very rare sighting indeed.

[@markshen3280]

In Hong Kong 🇭🇰 SAR, in the semi-rural areas by the beachfront promenade, sometimes we see the Golden (Yellow) Bittern.

[@alanadare7052]

Would love to see that bird.

Top 👍💚🇵🇹

[@RogersBirdingHotspots]

Ahh nice to have a new video from you both. I learn so much from your channel, and get so many ideas on where I can go on birding adventures.

[@alanadare7052]

Lovely to hear that. WE started to make these films years ago exactly because we couldn't find this type of material when planning birding trips but happy to say there's more around now.

[@RogersBirdingHotspots]

@@alanadare7052 thank you, I’m please to say that your videos were an inspiration for me to make my own KZbin series on birding hotspots. Especially your far north Australian ones. Thank you

[@alanadare7052]

@@RogersBirdingHotspots Thanks, it's great that you are doing similar and we have had a look at your Far North one ,your photography is very impressive, excellent in fact and well presented. When we first started the movie cameras just did digital on mini-cassettes, not even high definition. You are in it at a good time so keep them coming.

[@RogersBirdingHotspots]

@@alanadare7052 thank you, hopefully see you both out there sometime.

[@fredbloggs8362]

Brilliant. Enjoyed every minute.

[@alanadare7052]

Thank you. Great to get positive feedback.

[@shreecreativearts5132]

Beautiful birds,thanks for sharing

[@alanadare7052]

A pleasure.

[@zonabrown9241]

Glad your back❤❤❤

[@alanadare7052]

Glad to have finished another film!

[@alanadare7052]

happy to do so.

[@andemaiar]

This was such a pleasure to watch. I shared it with my parents too. We are from SA, so it was so interesting to see what different birds you were able to find in Victoria. Also you highlighted some places I had never thought to go! Thank you for this relaxing but informative video.

[@alanadare7052]

So glad you enjoyed it and also gained some birding ideas. If you go to the SE don't miss Pick Swamp which may deliver if Bool Lagoon is dry.

[@bmolitor615]

DoubleDare Does It AGAIN :)

[@alanadare7052]

Thanks.

[@craig9563]

Nice, thanks, Bool Lagoon was dry as a bone and no birds when I was there one summer, several years ago. (you did say it is seasonal, I guess I was there at the wrong time).

[@andemaiar]

Bool Lagoon has no water in it more often that not. There's got to be good, consistent rain for it to fill up, which might only happen every third winter these days.

[@Waldkauzmaus]

Hello from Germany, i love your birding videos and use them as a kind of “pre-education” to our trip to australia next week. We will travel between Mackay and Port Douglas. Do you maybe have one or two recomadation where to go for some feathered jewels of your incredible continent ? Looking forward to the next video.

[@alanadare7052]

Hi and thanks for your feedback, glad we are helping as our main aim is to encourage birdwatching. Your question, you could stay at Crater Lakes Rainforest Cottages Lake Eacham Qld. You would likely see Victoria's Riflebird among other good birds .We featured this in our Birding North East Queensland on KZbin. You could Google ebird Queensland Australia for more great hotspots ,there is many in Queensland. Thanks again.

[@sulawesipitta]

Very informative and amazing video of Australian Birds. Its also interesting to know that you have Eurasian Goldfinch down there ! Are they resident bird or migratory one ? . Thanks for sharing anyway.

[@markshen3280]

The Silver-eye birds resemble the Japanese White-eye.

[@alanadare7052]

Yes. The White-eye family is pretty widespread.

[@markshen3280]

Why is the Night Heron visible in the daytime despite it being a ‘nocturnal’ bird ?

[@alanadare7052]

They usually just perch in groups in dense bushes during the day but I think this one was used to getting a free feed from fisherman at that landing gutting fish.

[@Sonya-k2b]

Is it possible to get a summary of the stops of the trip
