How to find birds for photography - Camera settings

How can we find birds to photograph. This is not easy, but spending time out in nature is one thing that helps. I also use trail camera to track what species that is in an area. Spring is the best time for bird photography in my opinion. This is the time when the forest truly come alive. Spending time in the forest when birds song and leaf start to color nature, is also when I feel most alive. And is the best medicine for my mental health.

This year I was happy to spend a lot more time at our cabin together with family. And also nature around the area.
Join me as I photograph the great spotted woodpecker in an old beautiful forest, south in Norway.

Beautiful yet again Trond, and I completely agree that moments like this are special. I have finally managed to get a Kingfisher in a totally natural environment after 3 years of trying and I am over the moon with the results, I came away with a massive grin on my face 👌an image has been sent for print, frame purchased and will take pride of place on my studio wall 👍

Exceptional video again Trond. Spring and autumn are my favourite times of the year too, and being out with nature is so good for us it's so peaceful just to be there. 👏👏👏

I was fortunate to get some similar shots recently of both a mama and papa Downy Woodpecker feeding a chick, but I am not good at videos and yours is just so magical and relaxing with the peaceful musical accompaniment. Loved it!

Such pretty birds. Closest equivalent in Australia are cockatoos but they tear the bark. Great video and beautiful photos as always

Again a very nice video from you Trond. Be silent! without speech, and feel your soul the divine beauty. I agree with you spring is a very nice time.

This video's audio ambience is so good!

Wouldn't expect anything less Trond, very relaxed narration, lovely filming followed on with a selection of great stills - certainly a winning combination. 👌

Thank you for awesome footage! Woodpeckers are my favourite group of birds. And your photos and videos are top class. Thanks for inspiration. 🙂

Raising nature is amazing. We could learn so much from nature. We should be willing doing it! Between people and nature we should have respect and think about it every time. THX Trond for your view to nature ...

Another fine nature video, Trond. Loved the background music.

Thank you for the lovely video, as always. We have the same species in Korea, and as you mentioned in the video, they seem to mind people's presence less than other birds for some reason. I love watching them when I feel depressed. I just go out with my binoculars and watch them pecking or feeding their offspring. Nature is simply wonderful. And your photos and videos always manage to capture that wonder of nature so nicely. :D

Perfect trond, after long time watching u from green forest

That's what I really need more than anything else! You're lucky - I still struggle with my time and my channel has become full of concrete instead of animals 😒 but I hope to change it one day 😉😉

[theflyingdutchman]

Never give up, and you will see Nice photo’s and video from the Birds and the Mouse 😂🙏👏👍

Beautifully done video! Loved the images of the birds at the nest hole! And I took your advice on Topaz Ai. While expensive it is a great leap forward from the previous version! Thank you! Are the woods you showed south and east of Stavanger? Such a beautiful country!
