What an amazing video Greg! Thoroughly enjoyed it from the comfort of my couch. Bhutan has some beautiful birds, and unit I can travel there I’ll enjoy them through your videos.

Very beautiful landscape and birds! Superb video my friend 👏

Brilliant work on this video. Eclipses many of the professional videos I’ve seen on KZbin. This will help me with my upcoming trip to Bhutan. BTW - that white wagtail looks like the Hodgon’s (alboides) race, not the White-faced race.

[@GregBaker57]

Hi Daniel. Thanks for the comments. Re the wagtails, yes they are alboides and sometimes referred to as Himalayan Wagtail. Depends what else you’re referring to as “white-faced” as alboides is white faced …

[@wildaboutbirds71]

Brilliant video, mate! Very inspiring

[@vanik0r0]

Great work Greg, a fantastic-country. hope to return for my 4th trip soon!

[@l.d.t.6327]

Hi Greg, thanks for your wonderful footage. The quality of the moving images, together with the excellent sound and narration, merits far more views than the current number. I have been in Arunachal Pradesh and the Northern Himalayas, so I have seen most of the birds in the video.The video brings back so many good memories!

[@GregBaker57]

Hope you enjoy the rest of the series too.

[@l.d.t.6327]

@@GregBaker57 Well, I just discovered your other series on Brazil, Ecuador, Cuba, Belize,... Having been to some of those places before: for sure I will watch them all.

[@debasishghosh15]

Beautiful pictures and description. I visited the Land of Thunder Dragon in 2009 though on a simple trip without birding. The natural view of the nation is amazing.

[@bharathsa9261]

Great work friend.. Warmly welcoming you to India Kerala(Western ghats).You can find a few birds.

[@ingriddurden3929]

Beautiful birds, beautiful country, it seems, but I wonder if the weather is always so poor? Seems like you had hardly a day without rain. thanks for sharing the beautiful film ! Keep on filming !

[@GregBaker57]

We were unlucky with the weather but spring in the mountains can often be like that. Just have to make the most of it.
