S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
Over the last year of filming YouTube videos,
0:08
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
I've been to a few cool locations,
0:11
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
but none have quite left me in awe like RSPB Upmoor
0:15
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
has. During my last visit,
0:17
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
I captured Red Kite,
0:18
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
Barn Owl,
0:19
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
Marsh Harrier,
0:20
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
and I even heard a potential bitten,
0:22
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
so I knew I had to come back.
0:24
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
Today,
0:25
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
I return with my buddy Luke in the hope of once again viewing the Barn Owl
0:29
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
and Marsh Harrier.
0:30
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
Now,
0:31
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
we did arrive a little later than planned,
0:33
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
thanks to some wonderful congestion on the motorway.
0:36
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
So we were a little worried we may have lost our opportunity to see any owls.
0:40
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
But as it turns out,
0:42
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
luck was on our side.
0:44
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
So once again,
0:46
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
Art Moore is well and truly delivering right now.
0:49
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
Got to one of the main fields when you first get to the reserve and there's just
0:53
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
been a barn owl hunting over the reeds,
0:56
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
coming back and forth,
0:57
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
diving for prey.
0:58
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
Now he's just hidden himself,
1:00
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
giving me a bit of time to do this to camera.
1:01
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
So fingers crossed he comes out again and...
1:05
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
Gives us a bit more of a show,
1:06
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
but so far,
1:07
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
our more is delivering.
1:09
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
I'm
2:49
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
currently sitting in the first hide,
2:51
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
well, first scrim.
2:52
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
And the idea was to come here for the marsh areas.
2:54
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
And there was one about,
2:55
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
you know, sitting on the far bush.
2:57
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
But so far,
2:59
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
it's been the barn owl that's putting on the show.
3:03
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
So it's returned,
3:04
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
and it's kind of doing sort of big loops around the pond and just around the sort
3:08
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
of neighbouring fields.
3:09
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
Well...
3:11
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
It just came behind the reeds to my left.
3:14
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
And a bit too blocked to record a video
3:19
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
because I didn't really trust the autofocus that much.
3:21
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
But luckily it flew down the path towards us where we are in the
3:25
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
hide, the scrim.
3:26
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
And I just took a bunch of shots,
3:30
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
probably about maybe 50 or 60 odd in all fairness.
3:32
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
Proper machine gun in all fairness.
3:34
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
And I think I got some really lovely shots.
3:37
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
So,
3:38
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
well happy.
3:39
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
And even now.
3:41
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
I can see it just fluttering away on the far side of
3:45
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
these fields, over the pond.
3:47
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
So,
3:49
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
can be here for the marshes,
3:50
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
but...
3:51
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
The barn owl is killing it right now.
3:54
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
By the time I'd realised the owl's flight path,
3:56
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
I figured I'd aim for a photograph rather than some slow -mo footage.
3:59
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
So what you're viewing here is a collection of 160 shots,
4:03
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
a fair way off of 50 or 60 I'd estimated in the field.
4:07
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
Now, what an amazing moment this was,
4:09
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
having this awesome creature fly directly towards myself and Luke,
4:12
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
head first.
4:13
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
I went into autopilot as I started firing off frame after frame,
4:17
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
hoping it would result in a decent image.
4:19
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
trying not to lose it behind the thistles.
4:21
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
Now you'll have to let me know what you think of the final results.
5:23
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
There are two marsh harriers about,
5:24
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
and they're on the far side of this lake.
5:27
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
Now, the other reason we're here today,
5:30
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
you know, fingers crossed,
5:32
S… Speaker 2 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
you know,
5:33
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
hopefully they'll come in fairly close on my ship,
5:35
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
but hopefully I'll get a decent photo.
5:36
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
See, I can't even speak again.
5:38
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
They get me so excited and so happy.
5:39
S… Speaker 2 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
But yeah,
5:40
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
I really want to get a decent photo of a marsh harrier today.
5:43
S… Speaker 2 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
Now,
5:44
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
I'm half certain I've got a decent photo of a barn owl,
5:47
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
so we're already on for a winner.
5:49
S… Speaker 2 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
But...
5:52
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
Marsh...marsh...marsh owls?
5:53
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
Marsh harriers are the reason we're here.
5:55
S… Speaker 3 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
It was
6:49
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
absolutely incredible watching the marsh harriers hunt above the reeds,
6:53
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
periodically diving down and spooking all of the ducks,
6:56
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
sending them into the air.
6:57
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
We spent a few hours at the first screen,
6:59
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
and minus the weather being a little dull and grey,
7:02
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
we couldn't be happier with how it went.
7:04
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
We were mesmerised by both the barn owl and harrier sightings,
7:07
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
but eventually we had to leave and make way to the second screen.
7:12
S… Speaker 3 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
just a short walk up the trail we're just
8:11
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
leaving the second screen and for the most part is a bit of a bust so nothing
8:16
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
out of the ordinary a couple of camera geese i think a grey lag a couple of potard
8:20
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
which is quite nice but other than that fairly quiet so
8:24
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
now we're going to carry on well we're going to walk back into the reserve so to speak because
8:28
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
it's a bit linear art more is it's not a circular so
8:33
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
we're going to head on back to the first screen and potentially head on over to the hide
8:37
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
which we
8:38
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
Missed out this morning because we were too busy concentrating on those barn owls.
8:42
S… Speaker 2 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
Let's go.
8:43
S… Speaker 3 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
We have
10:44
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
just left the main bird hide here at Utmore and
10:48
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
for the most part it was actually fairly quiet.
10:50
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
So red kite here or there,
10:52
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
monk jack chilling.
10:53
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
But I think the real star of the show for that hide was actually the yellow hammer.
10:57
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
So they're the first ones I've seen all year.
11:00
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
And they're so unmistakable.
11:02
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
Is that the word?
11:03
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
Mistakable?
11:03
S… Speaker 2 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
Unmistakable.
11:04
S… Speaker 2 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
So beautiful,
11:06
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
bright yellow.
11:06
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
And they really sort of pop against the dark hedgerow.
11:09
S… Speaker 3 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
Yeah,
11:11
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
I think we're going to head back to the car now.
11:13
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
And if this is the last you see of me today,
11:17
S… Speaker 1 (My New Favourite Bird Location - My Return To RSPB Otmoor)
