Max, I came because of your brother, but I have stayed because of your amazing, peaceful videos. I watch these to relax and unwind. Thank you.

Best way to relax on a Friday evening…watch a Budnick brother.

We thoroughly enjoyed the birds and animals...your love for creation, and your ability to use the great equipment that you have! Thank you!!!

Amazing Captures Max. It did not disappoint and outdid my expectations as well. So many animals, creatures and beauty. Love how the camera makes you slow down, be patient and really enjoy and observe in a deeper way. Keep it up. Cheers

How refreshing, an atypical video with a focus on wildlife and the environment, rather than fishing and cooking. Thanks!

[MrMariotime]

This video was clearly made for Maxim to show off his photography skills - and I'm all for it!

Our family loves your videos and appreciate the IDs you provide. The bird ID’d as a Robin was actually the “Drink Your Tea” bird, the Towhee, and the two waterfowl ID’d as snow geese were actually trumpeter swans.

Thank you for showing Mother Nature in a high art form. With this work you are dedicated to serving your fellow human beings. Deep respect.

Watching this at work, keeps me calm and from acting out towards my co-workers. Thank you. 😂

[Ryan_Dickey]

Awesome footage of the wildlife. The birds are my favorite!

[jackgwaltney]

Watching your videos for the first time on a friend's advice. We have watched the Baird brothers for years. Great photography, especially for the bird lovers. Glad Noah told me about you.
