Hallo Gunther! This was a lovely documentary to watch. My father’s family is from Bhigwan. Our agricultural land got submerged when the Ujani dam was built. The temple that was showcased - Palasdeo, is the village where my grandfather taught for years. Bhigwan is home for me, our relatives still reside there. And at Dalaj that is 10 kms away from Bhigwan - and our ancestral village. Watching this lovely village and its people from your perspective was very refreshing. I’ve grown up watching all the beautiful birds but never seen a wolf. Your documentary makes me want to explore the wilderness at Bhigwan more now. I live in Pune and I’m proud to belong to Bhigwan where my roots are. And I’m especially glad I got to watch this documentary. Congratulations on your work and looking forward to more of your stories of beautiful places and it’s wonderful people. Danke Schön!

Its not Foxtail millet rather it would be Pearl Millet or Sorghum(depending on season) that are left for birds generally a small sacrificial patch so actual harvest is left relatively undisturbed.

Beautiful VDO & nice narration with subtitles, Off late the wolves are now assuming the role of Apex Grasslands Predators by preying on their natural prey of Chinkaras.
About the good fortune thing, my guess is that the presence of wolves in the areas around farmland keeps the chinkaras and other herbivores like wild boars away which in turn protects the farmland. So the farmer's notion of "presence of the wolves increases the yeild" Probably comes from this phenomenon. This is just my guess, i may be wrong.

Thanks for making great documentary on Bhigwan! There are many short films on youtube made by Wildlife photographers but unfortunately not so many views for them. encourage everyone to watch them as well to learn more about migratory birds in Bhigwan. Documentary is nice but i do have some reservations on filming and interview of shepherds and villagers ( my personal opinion ). Bhigwan is nice place to see around. And agree with Sandeep Nagare - this place should not become a picnic spot or commercial place and maintain as place for wildlife lovers. Thanks Gunther!

@@MrGuMac Thanks for asking honestly. Answer - I think you were inspired to show the wetlands and grasslands of Bhigwan.

I just noticed you got better views in your latest videos . Hope your years of hard work get paid now. Best of luck, buddy.

I have wish to buy this camera for hybrid use. However in India Maharashtra average temperature throughout the year is 30 to 40 c . If we use 10 bit 4.2.2 4K 60 fps will camera handle heat. Since camera manual says it will last 10 minutes . Also I want to ask did u face problem of dynamic range and low light performance of this camera as traditional micro4 struggle with sensor size.
