UNEXPECTED BIRD PHOTOGRAPHY ⎸ Expedition to the SWISS ALPS - ep. 3

[@natuurmetyouri]

Great video! Love the bearded vultures!

[@TobiasGjerde]

Thanks a lot! I love them too. After all, I came all the way to Switzerland to see them

3rd episode in a row! Now for the 4th! That's how amazing they are... Loved your shots! From details to wider shots, showing up bits of their surroundings, their habitat. And ending up with the wallcreeper was quite awesome! Only saw it one time, and it is quite an exquisite bird, so beautiful!! And still had the chance to photograph it here in my country - Portugal. Cheers Tobias! And thank you

[@TobiasGjerde]

Thanks so much for your support and your kind words! I hope you too can experience some more encounters with the wallcreeper

[@HugoFSousa]

@@TobiasGjerde Unfortunately, in the place where I photographed it, it stopped being observed a couple of years ago. As far as I know, the observations are now very sporadic and in very vast places that are difficult to access to photograph. Even so, these videos made me even more willing to spend a few days in that hotel to try the bearded vulture (in Portugal we call them bonebreaker as them break and eat the bones of dead animals)... I already knew the place and had seen other videos, but your series of episodes is top notch.

Beautiful images and video.

[@TobiasGjerde]

Thank you very much!

[@mcs3015]

what a great attitude you have about the unknowability of whether or not your hoped-for subjects will appear in a given outing. great shots as always. looks like you had so much fun!

[@TobiasGjerde]

Thanks a lot! Indeed -- the unpredictability is what makes the adventure!

[@leecoleman450]

Hi, where was the location of the bridge where you spotted the wallcreeper? Thanks

[@TobiasGjerde]

Hi, it’s down in the valley below Gemmi pass

[@irgendwasmittieren5467]

Exciting, inspiring, fantastic, again!

[@TobiasGjerde]

Thank you so much for your kind words!

Amazing sighting of a wallcreeper. Magnificent bird. We also have it here in Slovakia, where I live, but it´s very rare and endangered.

[@TobiasGjerde]

Totally, it’s a species I’ve wanted to see and photograph for a while, so it was amazing to finally get to do so!

[@Marcoroll1973]

Cool 😎

[@TobiasGjerde]

Thanks!

[@terryroth2855]

God, I wish I was young again. So great to watch these videos. Keep them coming. Excellent.👍👍

[@TobiasGjerde]

Thanks a lot! It's never too late to go out and enjoy nature :)

[@Westin_adventures]

Wonderful experience 🔥

[@TobiasGjerde]

It truly was!

6:18 golden eagle and what?? What is lammaguaya? I see golden eagle and bearded vulture

[@TobiasGjerde]

Hahah I do not know if you are joking or not, but I'll explain anyways. Lammergeier is another name for bearded vulture

[@wildlife351]

@@TobiasGjerde No, it wasn't a joke. I didn't know that lammergeier is a synonym for the vulture, so thanks! I've actually never heard that it has other names

[@irgendwasmittieren5467]

Lämmergeier (this ancient German name is based on the old myth that these birds carry away newborn lambs) and Bartgeier (exact translation of Bearded Vulture) are the German synonyms
