Filming singing birds. Footage from the last few years showing birds in song.

[@pacmans-world]

Wow, what a relaxing video to listen to. I especially love the Skylark song as a remind me of dog walking with my grandad when I was a youngster. Great work Mike can’t wait for the next video👍👍

[@MikeLaneFRPS]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@johnpark8297]

Better than a spring watch mindfulness moment. Thank you for taking the time to make this Mike, top work indeed 👍👍

[@MikeLaneFRPS]

My pleasure!

[@user-pt9iz8pz9r]

Wow!Such a clear, wonderful compilation of vocalisations and behavior..Thank you for all the effort.

[@MikeLaneFRPS]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@johannesleyman2628]

Totally spellbinding! Love that song thrush who isn't giving up on a yummy earthworm at 2:55!

[@adamISO200]

Absolutely brilliant film and project. Well done Mike 👍

[@MikeLaneFRPS]

Thanks.

[@paulharvey2396]

thank you for this - crystal clear singers for God -- how can I link this gift of beauty to the need to protect our precious world -- I see a future without them, the children have never even understood how lovely they are -- they lived in a clean room and went to another clean room, and there was no outside anymore - because ecological degradation had gone domino and it left only a handful living inside lives -- please Mike and all friends, make some powerful statements, like David Attenborough did, wake us up to the future loss. Thank you Mike.

[@ImageMaven]

I admire your work Mike. Lovely birds in this video and what great footage you have taken of them. You should make more types of videos like this! 👍👍

[@MikeLaneFRPS]

Many thanks!

[@ツPeter]

@@MikeLaneFRPS you're welcome.. By any chance you might know where some owl might be, around west midlands area. As I'm 13 years old never managed to see one before.

Incredible footage and it’s mind blowing how something so small can produce such beautiful sounds! I’m hoping one day, I can make similar footage myself. Thank you for sharing. 🙏😎👊

[@MikeLaneFRPS]

Thanks so much!

[@wildcat1065]

Fantastic collection. Envious of the grasshopper warbler - that is my bogey bird. The song thrush tug of war and the kingfisher were my favourites.

Such an awesome footage, I wish some labelling of birds would be more interesting. Thank you for sharing your story.

[@MikeLaneFRPS]

Thanks for watching!

[@kathleeneveritt5340]

I watch nearly all the videos on you tube on bird/wildlife photography from all over the world and your videos are right up with the best ,

[@MikeLaneFRPS]

Thanks.

[@SkylarkFields]

Superb collection of birds and birdsong. I will bookmark this for reference as there are a few I'm never too sure of. The most fascinating one for me was the tree pipit - never heard one sing (only ever seen one once anyway!) Thanks for making and sharing this lovely footage.

[@MikeLaneFRPS]

Glad it was helpful!

[@kathrynhall9920]

Fantastic video loved it.

[@MikeLaneFRPS]

[@tonyblake8841]

Hi Mike, what a fantastic video. Ticks so many boxes. You must have your camera set on P. P for patients. You did a great job. Loved it 😊

[@MikeLaneFRPS]

Thanks.

[@paulgregory3288]

[@MikeLaneFRPS]

Thank you.

[@solar-e-bike-touring-europe]

Beautiful footage Mike

[@MikeLaneFRPS]

Thanks.

[@sabyasachibanerjee124]

This struck me as a wonderful educational reference as well. Learn to know your birds...Great compilation. Lovely birds and some wonderful birdsong

[@MikeLaneFRPS]

Many thanks

[@Ken_H_]

Lovely video Mike. I've recently started using the Merlin sound ID, fascinating although not 100% accurate 👍

[@MikeLaneFRPS]

Great to hear!

[@rogerhance5883]

Great footage Mike. It's difficult enough just getting shots of some of those birds let alone to get them singing as well. We're any of these from your Berlin trip ?

[@MikeLaneFRPS]

Nothing from Berlin. I work to many weeks in front.

[@deirdreharness2701]

Great video Mike, you`ve captured some great videos. I will use this to help us idenify the bird sounds. Merlin is sometimes questionable.

[@MikeLaneFRPS]

Thanks

[@philparker97]

Some great footage and very good for my identification knowledge (or lack of!) on some of the birds.

[@MikeLaneFRPS]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@MJSPhotographyUK]

Thanks for sharing, Mike. Nice to see a Bullfinch. I haven't seen one in years.

[@MikeLaneFRPS]

Thanks for watching

[@stephenbarlow2493]

Impressive, and I was especially impressed with the Cetti's Warbler, and a few other well known skulkers. Have you seen, the Dodotronic, compact parabolic microphone, that will fit on a camera?

[@MikeLaneFRPS]

No I had not seen those. I just looked at the web site. Thanks.

[@sandydt57]

great video , i had the chance to see a grasshopper warbler a few years ago in Norfolk , an old guy told me to listen for something that sounded like a fishing reel ,

[@MikeLaneFRPS]

Or like a Grasshopper.

[@FocusedNatureAndWildlifeByAJ]

Wow, amazing video and sound 👍❤

[@MikeLaneFRPS]

Thank you 😋

[@Santamike212]

thank you, great job

[@MikeLaneFRPS]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@DimitriD71]

Brilliant video Mike. Thanks for the time and effort you put into these...it's much appreciated. Which Rode mic do you use and would you buy the same one again or recommend another one as I'm looking at getting one? Thank you!

[@MikeLaneFRPS]

There is no model number on it so I do not know. It was cheap. I have nothing to compare it to, but I expect there are better.

[@ЮрийГабрилович]

Helpful for beginners

[@MikeLaneFRPS]

Glad to hear that

[@musician1000]

I loved that! Ps. Did the Yellowhammer forget the words...?

[@MikeLaneFRPS]

They never say cheese while being photographed!

[@patricksalt6797]

Hi, nice video, what Rode mic do you use and are they interchangeable with my G9 and Nikon. Thanks

[@MikeLaneFRPS]

It does not have a model number on it, but it was the cheap end of the market. I would think they are universal.

[@ammadoux]

really beautiful. only the blackcaps sing when they come to my garden in Jeddah, whitethroats and garden warblers are silent. sometimes lesser whitethraots when nice number of them in garden they do communicate but not song. skylark is similar to the crested lark, song thrush similar a bit to Yemen thrush (an endimic to western Arabia). Eurasian robin calls close to the black bush robin, but the later is more melodious. thanks so much really enjoy it so much.

[@MikeLaneFRPS]

Thanks.

[@bancal]

Beautiful
