[@RichardBirchett]

Glad you enjoyed it Alison, it's Retro but cool! I'm glad you think so, I love birds no matter which side of the world they are on. Cheers x

[@joncothranphotography9375]

I simply love to see the spring birds moving in. All of those birds that you have seen and mentioned are some of my most favorite. Thanks for bringing me along.

[@RichardBirchett]

Cheers Jon, some beautiful species there, some common but they all need a bit of attention.. My pleasure and thanks for watching. 👍

[@sarahbirchett3331]

I just love the red winged blackbird-so lovely and a sweet little call! Great to see these little birds 🐦‍⬛ ❤xx

[@RichardBirchett]

Me too! Probably slightly un-derated as a species but the wing colour is lovely. x

[@wildphil]

Glad to hear that bike is British 🇬🇧👍👌

[@RichardBirchett]

Of course mate, cheers for checking in. Rich 👍

[@KGsPhotography]

Nice relaxed walk in the sunshine. Love the little Woodpecker, very smart. Cheers Keith

[@RichardBirchett]

Thanks Keith, great just to be out in Nature. Thanks for watching mate, will catch up on yours later 👍

[@slynn1313]

Love the vlogging on the bike 😂great birds as always!

[@RichardBirchett]

Thanks very much, a bit out of practice but it was great to get out on it. x

[@Rob.1340]

Cheers Rich, always good to see a new species. Hope all goes well with your coyote project, will be great to see. All the best. 👍📷😎

[@RichardBirchett]

Thanks Rob, love seeing new birds and mammals. Will be back on the project this week, all being well it will come together. 👍

[@andyheywoodsphotographya-h7913]

Another great video Richard some funny names but I suppose that can go both ways 😂👍 look forward to the coyotes hopefully you have some luck finding the den 📸👍

[@RichardBirchett]

Thanks Andy, yeah there are a few funny ones and many of the same species which are totally different! I'll always call them by their English name, at least when I move back, lol.. R

[@PeterLariviere]

Another wonderful video Richard. And never feel sorry for showing excitement on a more common species. We need to be reminded how lucky we are in Eastern Canada...and I get being excited about common birds. I am sure your UK followers would laugh at my excitement taking pictures this week of European Robin's and Great Tits here in South West France. I have about 300 Robin images alone!!!!😂

[@RichardBirchett]

Thanks Peter, I just love all things wild regardless of how common they are! I don't know about that my friend, we go bonkers over robins and it's our nations favourite! l look forward to see the red breast very soon. R👍

[@deerohdeer8000]

Thumbs up 55! 👍 great Saturday viewing back here in uk ! Thanks for keeping up with your KZbin channel! Always look forward to watching! Sounds great about the coyote shame about not getting permission for trail cameras 🎥 gutted !!! Oh well least you may be able to film them in the future . Really enjoyed this post ! Cheers craig

[@RichardBirchett]

Thanks Craig, always a pleasure getting a comment from you! I am back on them next week so I do hope to get lucky then. Yeah the cameras was a bit of a let down, even though I would have placed them well away from any human paths, still I may get a chance when I move and speak to some private landowners. Cheers R👍

[@DaveSandell-w6r]

Brilliant video nice to see different birds

[@RichardBirchett]

Thanks very much, glads you enjoyed it. R👍

[@meljones7774]

Lovely vid, love seeing Canada's birds 😊

[@RichardBirchett]

Thanks very much Mel, a few new ones coming soon. Rich 👍

[@marksymonds8477]

Great video again Richard, always nice to see something you’ve never seen before and in the sunshine.Here in the S West UK back to rain 😀 but still getting out.

[@RichardBirchett]

Hey Mark, thanks my friend. It really is, from the smaller less sought after birds to the bigger and maybe more desirable I will always enjoy what nature has to offer! Oh dear, theres me thinking it had started to pickup! Glad you are, best of luck when you do. Thanks for watching Rich 💪

[@mikegillett8203]

Thanks for this Rich. Lovely to see this side of the city. Coyote sounds exciting - best of luck with that. Enjoy the rain :)

[@RichardBirchett]

Thanks Mike, it's amazing what you get in Cities and the surround areas, Wildlife finds a way for sure! We needed a splash. Cheers Rich 👍

[@nickbirchett3508]

Enjoyed very much you managed to get all your stuff on the bike ok👍🦅🦅

[@RichardBirchett]

Cheers dad, bit tricky as I had a bit of skill fade😂👍

[@colintraveller]

Top Drawer ... Nowt wromg going about by bike !! . It's how i get about ......

[@RichardBirchett]

Thanks Colin, best way to see things! Just got to watch other cars as driving in Toronto is bad for your health if you are on a bike! R

[@SteveHedgesPhotography]

Good vlog mate, nice to see the sun shining where you are. It's just starting to pick up in the UK weather wise, loads of birds coming in too. Yellow wags, spoonbills and cuckoo's. All the best Steve.

[@RichardBirchett]

Thanks Steve, a bit different on a bike and a first for me, lol! Thank goodness it's started to get better, I feel for you I do! Sounds like Spring is on the way with some great birds, best of luck in your next video. R👍

[@DunrobinOntario]

Loved it as always!! No rush on the Pileated if you haven't run into them yet - we're lucky to have them year around! I so rarely see them in the summer once the leaves return to the forest... but they'll find you at some point, no doubt

[@RichardBirchett]

Thanks for the tips Jon and great to hear that! I've missed a few over the past few days but I shall keep trying. Cheers R👍

[@davidhuth5659]

Great video Richard! It's fun to see you discovering the birds that are common to many of us. It reminds me that they are still interesting species. The cow bird is a parasitic nesting species. Like the cuckoo of Europe.

[@RichardBirchett]

Thanks David, it's great getting the books out and researching the specie, very interesting about being a brood parasite! Only thought Cuckoo species were! Cheers Rich

[@simoneardley]

Nice work Rich, does it never rain over there mate?!!😃🌞Bummer about the trailcams 😏

[@RichardBirchett]

Thanks mate, we are getting more rain now we are in April! Saying that the weathers been awesome so far! Yeah, hopefully my next move I’ll get some permissions to put some up. Will catch up On your vid tomorrow, eager to see how the camera performs and those foxes 👍💪🏻

[@tomwhitmorephotography]

Another great video Rich, looking forward to see if you can get the Coyote's!

[@RichardBirchett]

Thanks very much Tom, You and me both..😆. Got a new series starting today at 1700 you time, hope you can stop by and give it a watch. All the best Rich 👍

[@martynhall1752]

Wow Richard that was a fantastic video the Northern Cardinal just fantastic, great to see a bit of macro work can’t remember when we had harsh light in the uk 😂😂,fantastic video certainly having the better weather thank you for sharing it with us. Martyn

[@RichardBirchett]

Thanks Martyn, they are a great bird, common hear in Toronto but still really great to see daily in the garden. It's a shame that I couldn't do more but I am sure I will get out with the 5DSR very soon. Hope the weather improves soon. Cheers Rich 👍

[@TrevsTreks964]

Lovely video Rich. Managed to get out to get some summer migrants here. The weather taken another turn for the worse! Good luck with the Coyotes! Atb👍

[@RichardBirchett]

Thanks Trev, bit different and good to get back on a bike, lol… no way, not again! The weather in the UK is just the worst ever! 😔👍

[@VinceMaidens]

Funny how everything you see there is now exotic here heh.

[@RichardBirchett]

Yeah, getting used to the local birds but the warblers and other species arriving now will take some getting to know! Still the Merlin bird App helps. Cheers Rich

[@BeauMeagor]

Don’t fall off 😂😂

[@RichardBirchett]
