National Park Vallée de Mai | Seychelles Praslin island

In this video, you are transferred to the Seychelles, see a real relict forest, which has been preserved on Praslin Island, the name of this heritage of mankind :Vallée de Mai Park. You need to be very happy to catch the lens of the amazing inhabitants of the park, chameleon, black parrot and others, but we were just enough to listen to the voice of this miracle of nature, the noise of majestic leaves, the creak of swaying trunks, the singing of local birds, inhaling it is lightweight and captured the fragrance identical to the one who was hundreds of thousands of years before us.

Amazing video! I would like to ask which of the 3 types of paths have you been on? Or all of them? 🙂

Hello! We try to go around the whole park, it takes a lot of time because of shooting videos and photos, usually about 4-5 hours. In 2021, we were lucky to be there completely alone and this allowed us to hear the forest much more subtly, to understand its voice, its inhabitants, harmony and smells. In this place, you start to think about the history of the planet and it's damn inspiring to live on and take care of nature. We are currently on the island of La Digue and probably this time we will not get to the park, although I have purchased a special device for recording the sounds of the forest.

@@arthurandvaleriasomewhere Thank you very much for your answer! Have a nice holiday to you! We are going to La Digue for 12 days in May, we are really looking forward to it! The Veuve Nature Reserve park is located in La Digue, where you can make a similar miracle video! 😉 Have you been here before?

@@Lotisz Thanks! My wife and I are in the Seychelles for the third time, and every time I have a new scenario for a movie with new locations in my head, unfortunately I can't physically manage to shoot with 2-3 cameras and still tell a story. We arrive on La Digue for 13 days, then on Mahe for 4 days to visit the botanical garden and something else secret))). Yes, we visited this wonderful reserve: Veuve Special Reserve. I was shooting and simultaneously looking for this rare pair of birds: Seychelles Black Paradise Flycatcher, but unfortunately we forgot the mosquito spray and we were eaten there. We saw the birds 3 times, but they were in flight and they did not get into the frame, although then we met them again in the marshes near Grand Anse beach, I managed to get the camera, but they were not as close as I wanted. Twice they were together, male and female. The male of this bird is very beautiful, I saw how he took a bath, landed neatly several times directly on the water surface of the swamp, lightly touching his paws and returned to the branch again in order to shake himself off. I also saw that freshwater turtle, she was swimming in this park in a small swamp, but I was already without a camera, so I took it off my phone. A lot of material has been shot again, I will start editing in March, I think something beautiful and useful will come out of it, and I will present my thoughts in a blog that is already in development, there will also be photos from the ground and from the air. If you are interested in something, then there is our mail on the channel and at the end of the video, too, I answer everyone in the morning and in the evening and if necessary, I will attach real photos from the place. Thank you for watching us and sharing this.

@@arthurandvaleriasomewhere Wow, what an experience! I hope we will be part of it too... 😊 It was great to read too!

@@Lotisz Today I noticed this bird again and even managed to capture it in the frame, it will be included in the new film. Lotuses bloomed in the swamp. In the ocean, a small spotted moray eel got into the frame and so on)). Email: [e-mail]
