Shot with Panasonic GH5 and Canon EF500mm. 180fps Slowmotion upscaled to 4k.

[@davidperrott5098]

Astonishingly well captured and superbly put together. This to me is more than a piece in a program It's Living Art! Incredible. Thanks x

[@daniellehner1383]

Great camera work. The rain gives this video a certain edge. I in particular like the slow-motion sequences. Thanks for posting.

[@yourdaddy6030]

It's all in slow motion

[@tomtalker2000]

I've been in the avian field now for the better part of 30yrs. I've worked "hands on" with everything from Warblers to Birds of Prey and Budgies to Macaws. And i must say this footage is STELLAR photography and putting it all together and watching it was a sheer delight for me. Corvids happen to be my one of my favorite family of birds. They consist of; Ravens, crows, magpies, rooks, jackdaws, jays, and nutcrackers. And the Eurasian Jay or commonly referred to as just "a jay" is the originator of it's class. While Blue and Steller's jays are large and can be predatory. The Eurasian is bigger then both of them averaging around 13-15in so it's a no wonder why this little Accipiter was having difficulty taking down a bird this large. Much less feisty as Eurasians have quite an aggressive attitude and are FAR more predatory then there smaller cousins the Blue and Steller's. That's not to say the hawk couldn't kill one but it would have one helluva fight on it's hands in the process. And sometimes it's not worth the effort on there part realizing a well placed peck of the jay's strong beak could easily remove an eye...!!! However, EXCELLENT footage none the less that i thoroughly enjoyed watching. Keep up the GREAT work...!!! And happy birding everyone keep your eyes to the skies you just never know what your going to see...:)

As far as the bird world goes, I don't think I've seen anything so beautifully put together. Absolutely fantastic. Video, slow-mo, music....................hats off !

[@pasgas12safe58]

Excellent job with the camera & editing. One of my favourite birds the Sparrowhawk & you captured them perfectly, thanks for sharing.👍✌

[@theotheseaeagle]

I’ll never forget the time I saw my first sparrowhawk. They’ve been one of my favourite birds of prey since that day. I still see them occasionally. Though they rarely hang around very long

[@Ptarmi]

Wonderful footage. In my Ghillie Suit I've often watched young Sparrowhawks sparring like this with up to 7 young Jays in my local wood. It's fantastic fun & so exciting to watch, it's as if they are all involved in a training exercise.

Corvids are smart and fierce and can be incredibly acrobatic - at the same size, that poor sparrowhawk doesn't stand a chance. Beautiful footage.

[@AntPDC]

Beautiful work, thank you. On a technical point, what benefits accrue from upscaling to 4k from native resolution other than a much larger file size?

[@seile80]

Hi AntPDC, than you :-) As youtube downsamples to 16mb/s from HD original approx 80mb/s it will be better quality in 4k with downsample to 40mb/s. The video is also shot in 4k 50fps which have bitrate 150mb/s.

[@henthust9784]

Which camera, brand and model were you using? I can't believe it could even capture rain droplets aplenty, not by chance. Very good job. It's the clarity of the picture which got me to subscribe.

[@WildlifeBirdsUK]

Wow, what a superbly edited video you have created there. You have obviously put a lot of groundwork and time into capturing so much superb footage. There are few videos that people tend to watch right through, if over a few minutes but this was one of them. I think the Jay might have battled too hard for the Sparrowhawk and it didn't seem all that bothered about it. And then of course it has a go at a Magpie! It was a really enjoyable watch and well done to you.

[@tobiasebner5130]

Is the sparrowhawk at 3:50 a Juvenile?

Beautiful. I wish they could post this in HD @60 FPS so we could see the motion in detail. Would be so awesome.

[@seile80]

Thank you Batfox Babe, as i film in 4k50 im not able to show in 60fps and since sparrwohawks are so fast i prefer to show them in 25fps :-) check out new sparrowhawk video/channel at kzbin.info/door/ZA1bwRJaqneQAc7jT27kDg?view_as=subscriber

Yes im sure it is an sparrowhawk...

[@Maurice_Moss]

Fantastic footage. Corvids always seem to harass birds of prey, no matter how big they are 😅

[@darrionkemp1948]

again people this is a sharp shinned hawk not a sparrowhawk

[@seile80]

Hi Darrion, you are wrong. Look up Eurasian Sparrowhawk which is the type we have in Norway. Sharp Shinned are found in USA/Canada

Sad that you have $2K+ o f hardware but you can't ease in and ease out the title scaling correctly. 0:00
