Great footage! How did you film the Woodpecker when it was in the tree? I tried to film them in a local wood but the bird was extremely timid and would fly off when I got within 100 metres or so.
Well Andrew i measured the distance when she left the frame it was 11 feet from bird to lens, i was setup on a hole in tree about 25 feet away, sat still with hat on, normal cloths and BINGO she came to hole right beside me. I then very slowly got her in the frame refocused ( just ) and she was there for 4 min 28 secs, my heart was pumping like mad it was amazing, now that makes up for the hours ive spent and filmed nothing
i love spending time just making bird cakes and just helping the birds around my gardens even though i am a magician i still spend time with the birds.
i really disapionted about the house sparrows declineing and the song thrush
excellent photography – what camera did you use?
JVC GZ-HD7 with 1.7 tel Lens
Superb quality filming. Great shots of the woodpecker. I couldn’t tell the difference between hd and normal quality before, but with this in hd it felt like I was there, amazing! *****
oh my god! i have very nearly saw a greater spotted woodpecker! but not this good! Would so love to see a better view of one! Great shots and great camera there too!
