stormcabbirds birding podcast

A packed week of travelling around Kent and popping across the river to Essex. Hen Harrier, Kingfishers, Hedgehogs, Merlin are among some of the great finds.

I get back on the road in another cab, this time a nice quiet electric hybrid. I get a Pectoral Sandpiper lifer, and see a rarities like Spotted Redshank, Grey Phalarope, and a Merlin. A packed week for Kent.

In this episode I give an overview of my trip over to the Caribbean island, and why I was going over on a solo trip.

4 New RSPB reserves visited, and a long overdue revisit to Pulborough Brooks. I discuss the Wryneck influx, and DxO Photolab 10 is released.

A PACKED week taking in Bough Beech & the Oast House, Sheppey & Elmley, a local cemetery, and my first trip to Abberton reservoir.

I have a health scare brought on by the heatwave, latest vlogs, MEGAS, new t-shirt merch, and getting back on the road.

New vlogs - afternoon in the New Forest product reviews, bird ID, latest bird news, new rare sightings in the UK including a blue cheeked bee eater.

In this episode I look at new articles related to birds, photography, and Ai. Good stories from the bird world, and the latest sightings in the UK.

My London cab comes up to its 12th birthday, and due to London's strict emission laws, can no longer work as a taxi. I take it to Elmley & Sheppey for its last trip there. I also have a short visit to Crossness where I talk about budget camera covers, how to rescue a wireless mic that was put in the washing machine, and other bits & pieces.

My first trip to the Global Birdfair. I talk about my visit, the photography session afterwards, and all the comments from the videos. As usual head over to my Youtube channel to watch the latest round of vlogs.

Google has been populating my homepage with lots of bird stories. Never asked it to. I guess it's just the nature the beast nowadays. Handy though, as it does the leg work for me.

My dot sight videos on Youtube have always done ok, nothing special, but they have blown right up on Facebook & Instagram. I wasn't prepared for the comments.

Head over to my Youtube for all the new vlogs

Head over to my Youtube to see all the latest vlogs.

Lots in today's podcast, from revisits to big reserves, new filming technique using a GoPro, and big birding news for the UK & Ireland.

Haven't been out at all, so been doing lots of catch up with organising bird footage ready for future projects 

Head over to my Youtube page to watch a fully compressive breakdown of my trips to these 2 great countries.

I discuss all the details of the last minute trip, and good stuff to know. Vlogs are going up now on my Youtube, and vertical videos on all the socials "stormcabbirds"

New Malta vlogs, local patch birds giving me some beautiful video of their singing, an escaped Egyptian vulture, and much more. As always pop over to my Youtube for all the visuals.

A run down of my week holiday with some birdwatching over in Malta. I am currently uploading several vlogs on my Youtube channel with lots of info, video, and photos, so start keeping an eye for those.

In this podcast and corresponding Youtube vlog, I discuss the controversial topic of bird lifers. What counts as a lifer, lifer lists, and what happens when science lumps or splits a species.

Trying a VERY long form for a change. Just left the mic running while I walked around. The thought is that people will just like something quiet playing in the background as they go about their daily business. Let me know if you like this sort of thing.

Negative comments that actually help, I do more local vlogs due to fuel costs, and uploading old vlogs but edited better.

A catch up with all this weeks uploads to Youtube, and my trip out to Joydens Wood where I had a spectacular encounter with a red kite.

I spend the day at Foreness Point, and bring you up to date with all the other goings on with my Youtube uploads.
