Excellent work again. I find nice piece of flowering gorse works well, pinning (live) mealworms to the gorse thorns the stonechat will often flutter and try and pick off the mealworms rather than land on the gorse.
Fantastic. Brilliant photos. I have stone chats behind the house. Noisy little so-and-sos. Got a few nice pictures of them during the summer. Will try again when I get a hide in position. Great advice on moving the feeder into position bit by bit.
Hi, Some lovley images there, we have these as Winter visitors in Greece but trying to get close is a little difficult, you gave me a good idea there, thankyou. Russ.
Gran trabajo Mike con las tarabillas. Personalmente llevo trabajando años con ellas y todos los años entablo una amistad que perdura todo el invierno. Les llevo tenebrios y tras un período de adaptación me reconocen cuando me ven. Posan sin ningún hide de por medio y posan de maravilla, por supuesto también comen.
Excellent video Mike. I see @Fu Alexander has been shooting them in Hong Kong, I have been photographing Siberian Stonechats in Hainan Island, just a short distance away. I have never been able to get them to eat any (dead) mealworms I have left out for them. I like your set up and the idea of moving it incrementally to desired location. Look forward to trying it. Keep them coming.
These are brilliant hides, I use exactly the same type for controlling the magpies with an air rifle on the local reserve for the wardens, they are so discrete nobody ever comments on them, and the magpies are oblivious to what's occurring!
I love the guidance you give on these posts Mike. Two questions, how do you keep your hands warm (I'm guessing you don't), and how do you obtain the permissions from land owners? I'm quite asthmatic, but I would like to give something outside the garden a try. Thanks for the beautiful photography.
Only ordinary cheap gloves John. Nothing fancy. I knock on doors and ask. Finding out who owns land is the hard part. Sometimes they say no and sometimes yes.
The best tutorial ever, 6min, efective and to the point, tanks
I had not thought of moving the food several times closer and closer to where you wish to shoot. Thank you!
Great tips. Thanks for sharing
stunning work!
Wow, those are beautiful birds! The beauty of the Lord's handiwork is most awesome!
Thank you for sharing you knowledge
This is great. Moving the feeder gradually was brilliant. I going to try using an upside down toilet plunger as a movable feeder.
Wow some amazing shots here
Wonderful captures and you got so close - fantastic!
Lovely photos. I particularly like the ones where the birds are among the red berries - rosehips (?). Thank you for sharing.

Am not really into photography but can appreciate your field craft. Great pictures and so well thought out am very impressed.

Amazing video, amazing channel. Mike is a bible for bird photography!
Thanks.
Although this is one of your earlier videos, I still think its one of your best, and it was the video that inspired me to start making videos.
Thanks Roger. I prefer to make this type.
@@MikeLaneFRPS How the weather in Berlin ? Its been throwing it down all afternoon here !
It's cold but only a little rain. Have filmed several difficult to get clips such as singing nuthatch
Excellent video. Inspiring. I´m gonna try it here, in our brazilian fields. Thanks a lot, Mike!
Wonderful !
Excellent Mike. Great shots, you make it look so easy.
Clever setup by. Cameraman Mike
Great footage Mike, just bought myself some MFT gear, hoping to emulate your great images.
Absolutely beautiful images. I'm just getting into wildlife photography, so this video has given me great information. Thanks

Awesome video!

Nice images of a stunning bird Mike :-)
These are brilliant hides, I use exactly the same type for controlling the magpies with an air rifle on the local reserve for the wardens, they are so discrete nobody ever comments on them, and the magpies are oblivious to what's occurring!

Amazing Pictures!!!! Thank you so much!
Super images..... 👍👍👍
Hi Mike, over the last 5 years do you think your photography has changed much. And what has changed about it? Just wondering.
Brilliant stuff
Great Mike!
Great video Mike.
I use a fencing pole to create holes in the ground. I'm planning to fit it with a footrest to increase efficiency.
excellent vlog Mike.
Smart
