Thanks for adding the Latin names. I live in the Netherlands, so the ecosystem is very similar, and your videos are a great way to learn more about the wildlife here. But I sometimes find it hard to figure out which animal you're talking about exactly. It seems that the more common a species is, the greater the regional difference in names. Fortunately, the Latin makes it easy to find more information.

A couple of years ago I saw a kingfisher perched on a small branch above the burn that runs round my garden . I was crossing the bridge at the time and was able to gaze down onto it from a distance of less than 3 metres. Haven't seen one since and a big flood last November carried away the thin branch it was sitting on.

Otters are the best, I pointed a couple out to a lady walking down the road by the river last year and she was so happy. Not many things effect people as much as wildlife in that way.

It's a shame that the minnows have disappeared from the small river in Lindford, Bordon in Hampshire which has led to no more Kingfishers, a disappearance of many many large trout and perch. And this has been the case for quite a few years now. Most likely due to pollution.

Great clip, but where’s the big hitters? Salmon,trout, Barbel, and the ever problematic signal crayfish, big problem along the Colne valley rivers. European crayfish have declined in numbers.

Thank you. I am going to do a second version of this for faster flowing water which will feature all of those, except signal crayfish which I should have put in this one.
@simonartley16456 ай бұрын
There should be a wide range of fish species and yes more otters as well as insect life .Its wonderful to see otters and I can remember water voles HOWEVER it is unfortunately and scandalously all threatened by sewage release by water companies and modern intensive agriculture pollution and water abstraction and urbanisation..compounded by lack of care and inaction by the Environment agency Only 14% of English and Welsh rivers are in a good environmental state Much care and work by river trusts and others is helping .A mayfly hatch on a chalkstream is a fine thing to behold, watching a dipper feed or a salmon try to get up a waterfall. All worth conserving and more for our natural heritage and our children Being beside a river is wonderful for mental health...( says this angler of 53 years) Simon Artley
