How To Film Wildlife | Ep 3

[@pattygonzales9605]

These vids are the next best thing to being there.

[@craftystash8667]

You 2 are Precious 🤠

[@judye62]

A duck that swallowed an umbrella! Brilliant!

[@consultingdetective6310]

I definitely won't be able to unsee the umbrella-swallowing duck

[@gabinathan5499]

JAMES HENDRY I 💙YOUR CHANNEL . OF ALL THE GUIDES FROM THE WILDEARTH CHANNEL OF THE DJUMA STAFF IN MY OPINION U R THE BEST OF THE GUIDES

[@mariejones2302]

ABSOLUTELY AGREE!!!

[@paulhendriksz5756]

James and Kirsten, Your videos are of World Class. In this time of Covid-19, you give me reason to live. I follow a lot of Overlander, 4x4 and travel youtubers....none are this good!

[@carolinag19699]

James, I have to say you have the talent of making a bad camping trip enjoyable!!

[@mathewweedman4110]

Duck that swallowed an umbrella😂😂 cant unsee that🤣

[@alanaronald244]

Happy wife, happy life, James...: ) My best to you both.

[@viviennelambie5645]

Sorry about the storm incident but I have to say you guys make a formidable bush team I truly love your clips happy holidaying for the future thankyou for including us

[@craftystash8667]

I love Kirsten's looks Great video

[@JamesHendry]

Me too

[@stadleroux]

I'd have to say in my case that would be an understatement of note. Hubba hubba.

[@ItsTippToppFishing]

JAMES! A Tipp to help your pans with your fluid head, use an elastic band at the end of your handle. The resistance of your fluid head and the gradual preasure from the elastic as you pull it, results in a more gradual start and stop to your panning.

[@nancyf52]

Always enjoy these camping trips even though some parts are not that enjoyable for you. The dinner explanation was hilarious. Thx for sharing!

[@msdebbier]

Oh dear. Also, so much belly laughing while watching this video. But I think the best part is Kirsten's giggle at 15:23.

[@lisaa7991]

Yet another wonderful installment of this fine series! Suggestion: ALWAYS carry Emergency Chocolate with you on your adventures! It suffices for Kirsty's grump-early-morning-sugar needs, and for lousy-dinner replacements, and for plummeting mid-afternoon blood sugar levels! And for telling Rob of your latest tent misadventures......well, I suspect that he will manage to understand!

[@mlr4524]

Wonderfully eclectic travelogue as always. The young giraffe grooming herself with her spa tree was fascinating.

[@hellosunshine9915]

James is a handy man 👍 thanks for sharing this !! 😊

[@atlantajuls7141]

Love the pier scene! So good to see Kirsten embracing being apart of the “on camera” production.

[@sljallen]

My goodness James. We never cease to learn new things from you. Shines new light on the awesomeness of the camera men on the Wild Earth Safaris. A man of many trades. Thank you for sharing this fun adventure with us. Beautiful area.

[@lindafromcalifornia1155]

Sometimes it just one of those tough days that you don't ask what's next, because life will show you, it rains. Thanks for sharing.

[@wildlifevideomariofrancesc7809]

Isimangaliso is a very nice park, I was there a few years ago. Congratulations for your equipment, you have a very good camera and tripod!

[@larrybryant4255]

Very entertaining and informative, actually.

[@mypathunfolding]

I can't unsee it now, Kirsten! Very clever. Wow, I'm sorry camp was destroyed so horribly! :-(

[@GM_-]

I hope your channel grows by leaps and bounds James, thanks for another enjoyable video.

[@1psfinla]

With all that's going on in the States you're videos are a welcome respite! You two make a fantastic team, as I am sure you know but it has to be said. Your father-in-law is remarkably understanding! :) Thanks for making it a little bit longer, every moment spent with you and Kirsten is wonderful. Try taking some protein bars with you to have before breakfast. Might be cheerier and less frustrated in the long run. Sorry about dinner and the storm breaking down camp. How was Kristen's dinner? If you start a Patreon or GoFundMe or the equivalent we could probably get you your own camper and the video equipment you really want. Something to keep in mind. Thanks as always! Oh, I almost hit comment without mentioning the gorgeous photography!

[@porteii]

Wonderful to see you and Kirsten out and about, James. Cheers from Vancouver...Canada. 😁 P.S. The music is great.

[@smwokk]

Another bit of Eden to add to the bucket list. I see Kirsten has a great sense of humor as well. You make a great team!

[@cookiebombay2683]

Pro tip: Next time you take Kirsten camping carry along a secret stash of little thoughtful gifts for those difficult mornings. (Like a little candy or sweet treat) Loved the video. Eager for more

[@JamesHendry]

Goodness that will take planning

[@pattiwhite9575]

A good husband and father always should carry a few pieces of hard candy in their pocket.

[@lisaa7991]

@@pattiwhite9575 Chocolate.....always chocolate.......

[@dakles]

This made me think back to the one time I went camping at Pilanesberg. I had to hurry to errect our tent before a storm hit us, unfortunately I wasn't in time and the wind snapped some of the poles before I could properly secure them. Then I proceeded to pack up during the storm.

[@cherylsibson8457]

Well, maybe you'll come up with a photogenic way to capture your trailer troubles, the grass, and the dung beetle part was great!

[@dotholbrook46]

Thanks again for sharing your life with everyone.

[@paintparkspaws]

I can't catch my breath after the Dung Beetle segment when Kirsten helped by sitting in the road also. Oh oh. Big storm. At least it wasn't raining caterpillar poo poo. Great fun. So thankful. Hope we see you on Djuma really soon. 😊🧡🙋🏼‍♀️

[@daniellebren100]

Great video. Glad I found you. You were one of my favorites from wildearth. Was sad to see you go. The wife is a lovely addition as well

[@pajamadonkey]

Awesome episode. Love watching the Hendry's.

[@LadyMaelBethad]

I am impressed by the late night repairs. I can recommend 1 place to eat in St Lucia (and it's not Wimpy)

[@edithmonaghan8935]

I thought this video was soo funny keep them coming thank you xx

[@robynp5917]

Oh no, sorry about your troubles at camp. On the bright side, at least your expensive camera equipment didn't get ruined ☺️ Another great episode as usual

[@francescam9539]

Gorgeous photography, thank you for that and the comic relief. 👍

[@karonsacks2773]

Very awesome 😎 love your adventures no matter what happens 😍

[@xoladinhoaltice9122]

It is time to upgrade to the bushwakka bhoma,enough about that bad expirience but I really enjoy how you guys make the best of each situation and he's humor is out of this world lol.

[@elke9499]

Love you 2 go have fun...life is short 😍

[@luanagladys11]

Love your humor and the music.

[@cjmcfall9798]

James, you're living my dream!

[@ebmurphy8744]

James is an international gem

[@JamesHendry]

Why thank you

[@cvarchfan]

Always an adventure!! Thank you for the entertainment !

[@instantwildlife4295]

Thanks for another entertaining and hilarious video!!!

[@tmaryso43williams10]

Thanks for another entertaining episode of your travels!

[@jospike1470]

Thanks for sharing James. Expat teacher in Muscat, Oman.....lovely to see my home home, Grew up in Empangeni, Mtubatuba, Monzi and Bushlands area of Zululand. You make me homesick

[@ubombogirl]

it is nice to see a familiar area, right?! :)

[@xansascha]

Thanks for the fun video. I was eating my yogurt with granola breakfast while watching you eat the same. Great choice!

[@raemurray3495]

Wow yet another awesome video and great music. Thank you 🌞

[@kayslowey-sly2138]

Such a lovely beginning. The scenery and animals were delightful. I’m so sorry you had to rebuild your camp. It must have been quite a storm! Looking forward to the next episode.

[@firstladyshah8971]

Mr. Hendry., I love your description of the excursion to an Italian restaurant. It is not funny, but it is. Thank you for making us laugh.

[@fernlintner65]

Another winner wish you all had a drone! Ha saw a t shirt with big foot on it with the caption “social distancing champion”

[@icebowsr5312]

It is wonderful to see the love!

[@jenswildlifephotographs]

Thank you James and Kirsty for making an incredible series! Can't wait for more episodes!!

[@susanlenk9284]

Do things always happen in 3's. Can't wait for the next installment! Thanks !!

[@pattiwhite9575]

Make all the jokes you want but that place is Be Utiful! No one around, you got the whole place to yourself. Wish I was there. Kind of dream state to just to be free to wonder in nature all day for many days and nights.

[@Jessica-jr2yt]

Sadly I discovered wildearth just as you were leaving so I was thrilled to discover you have your own channel. 🤎

[@caseG80]

He will be back

[@marthat4258]

Another great video from the Hendrys!!

[@bvdragonlady]

Oh I loved it, another great episode...I giggled when at the beginning you were saying something about “when she turns that thing off, when she pushes that red button “...& click, a advertisement ad cam on...it was funny that it happened right at that moment...lol...so sorry about the storm damage to your camp....chalk it up as just another adventure in the saga of James & Kirsten!! The wildlife captures were awesome! Always looking forward to your next adventure and thank you both for sharing some of your precious time with us❤️🤗🤗

[@avrilmcclure4600]

James I have to agree with Kirstin about those birds( umbrella stuck in mouth) as it reminds me of the film Mary Poppins which my son loved watching

[@vickyb5935]

Surely “Rob” can`t blame you, James! Since he`s such a camper, I`m sure things like this have happened to him, too! I`m sure he`ll let you keep Kirsten!

[@bigdog5758]

So cool learning about other countries

[@veragamsky1734]

loved how you panned the white blossoms in front of the zebras. Was so pretty. You take wonderful pictures and i include ones of Kirsten. With her working at camp while you were on safari made it hard for me to imagine what she looked like. Very pretty. Good thing you like the bush so mush with the problems. Last one was the caterpillar poo at camp and this time to get camp back in order in the dark. I had to sleep in a sleeping bag on a tree root and never went camping again.

[@gigicostlow4414]

James you can make even the cheapest camera gear look like a million bucks. Video was perfectly done including the music. Kirsty you had me laughing with your expressions. Sorry about the storm damage but that's just the nature of camping. Been there done that a few times. Tip: Duct tape fixes about everything. Can't wait until the next episode. Thanks you two.

[@Noriko1988]

14:40 Omg, same happened to me the other day while having a nice sandwich with cucumber, and tomatoes and when I bit the tomato I noticed the revolting horrible puking taste in my mouth and spat the tomato straight into the trashcan in the kitchen. *BLECH!* Can imagine how you felt in that restaurant.......

[@wendyhmochi7751]

Thank you James and Kirsten, the highlight of my week has already come! It’s so beautiful there, some of it looked like those in Hawai’i. Forgot to mention before that I love the new logo at the beginning. Your breakfast is what I eat every morning: unflavored yogurt, blueberries, banana, granola and honey, haha! What a shit end to a wonderful day but you both still could laugh, “ Rob, I hate to have to tell you this but....” :)))

[@sowelu66]

Yay!🥰

[@bernierigby3496]

🙋‍♀️🇬🇧Gril good 🆗

[@wendyh3891]

Oops!! Sorry Rob. Well he doesn’t mind lending it to you as you look after & love his daughter! So now I can’t wait for the next episode. Thank you James & Kirsten ❤️❤️❤️ I loved Charters Creek

[@JamesHendry]

His generosity is boundless

[@ubombogirl]

all was great except the saddlebill referenced as a chap was indeed a chapette ;) lol and then :( there was the report of your less than lovely dinner and the "sorry rob" scenario at the end....always love hangin' with y'all...oh and breakfast looked yum-e (one of my faves)!

[@СпасЯнков-э2ч]

Thanks for sharing this James

[@Matth3wcarter]

I can’t help thinking about some of the characters from your book when you “rant” about dinner.

[@douglasbrucebrand]

Hey Matt, funny meeting you here.

[@Matth3wcarter]

@@douglasbrucebrand good content for good people obviously! Are you still in Knysna?

[@trishturner2220]

That was so fun !!!

[@izakgreyling8872]

Great video. Have you considered a window mount like Vanguard makes or something similar? Google Vanguard window mounts.

[@ProjectAlphaRaw]

Another masterpiece, thanks! Also a wonderfully comprehensive guide to filming wildlife and I look forward to implementing my newly acquired knowledge

[@JamesHendry]

I hope you have a big bank balance...

[@ProjectAlphaRaw]

@@JamesHendry My trick is to simply never encounter any wildlife, not fantastic for the viewers but pretty easy on the bank account!

[@pickledgrammar7679]

at the giraffe part: * james' high pitched southern accent* that's gotta be the craziest mega fuana in aaaaaaall the world!!!!

[@Matth3wcarter]

Very good! Thank you very much

[@LadyMaelBethad]

I have that map book!

[@sanals5677]

Love all your videos - James & Kirsten. Have been following you from the start when you were in Safari Live 😊. Keep up the good work. What camera and lens do you use?

[@rbeard7580]

Another fun video! So sorry about the awning collapse.

[@JamesHendry]

No harm done!

[@darcyann66]

LOL James , Your father in law must be a very understanding man. One of the times you go back after breaking something of his, you need to get a video of his reaction. I think when you show he brings out a paper and pen as a checklist of what has James broken this time.lol

[@JamesHendry]

He’s so good about it!

[@darkcloud5530]

Oh please....can I join you two for the yummy breakfast? LOL always...

Try graphite power dry lubricant from the locksmith to make an average fluid head feel like you spent R100k.

[@JamesHendry]

Great tip - will give it a try. thanks!

[@ryanhenry21]

Goddamnit! Now it’s a duck that swallowed an umbrella every time I see one.

[@craigdouglasmartens7037]

The occurence of so many leopard spoor in the walways is concrete evidence of a panthera conspiracy... Since I grew up here as the bewildered son of a Parks Board Warden caught between paradise ( isiMangaliso Wetland Park before World Heritage Status) and purgatory ( civilization where school was). Many, many stories and an original song. There we go...

[@Mudjie50]

What was the song you used over half way through this video.. I would like to find it and see if it is available to purchase

[@besweeeet2]

Do American-style travel trailers exist there?

[@neelsfer]

Pls list your equipment. Nice videography

[@jospike1470]

Those teenage giraffes...do they have a RAGE at this time of the year? Sorry, couldn't resist that...

[@vokstar]

Always the way, borrow something and break it, maybe the camper is just jinxed tho.

[@5Heth]

How do you know it is safe to be sitting on the road away from the car. Isn’t there lions,& other things that could be hungry, there where you are

[@marilynpattenden9544]

Camping and St Lucia aren't for sissies. Great episode from a part of the country I know quite well.

[@guitaristssuck8979]

6:37 So is getting out of the car allowed there?

[@JamesHendry]

Yes it is at designated areas

[@dumanimjo609]

Gave you my "like". Seems you may need it after that horrendous ordeal.
