    Apparently sound no.7 is inaudible on certain Android devices. If that's the case for you, give yourself that point 😉

    Rikus and I were super excited to see another call challenge video 🤩 We discovered your channel with the first bird call challenge videos and they got us through lockdown.
    But I think we need to do more listening in the bush 😂🙈 We did not do well in this one 😂 The cheetah & the wild dogs we thought were birds 🙈 But because of our competitive nature it was of course a competition between Rikus & I and Stacy won and will now receive coffee in bed 😉
    Thanks Villiers for an awesome video 🙌🏼

      Haha! My sneaky plan worked 😈 I had a feeling some might confuse those for birds 😏 I’m glad you tried and enjoyed it and would appreciate it if you shared it with your friends 🙏🏻😎

      We love watching you and "Ricky" lol in your episodes, loved your episode when you had Christmas in the bush 😁

    Great idea, it's so much harder than you think when you're not in the bush listening!!! A pitiful 12!

    I got 15 out of 25 right. Immediately recognized the hoo call of the painted wolf/African wild dog.

    11/25... quite a few threw me. Think I need to go to the bush soon to brush up ;)

  • @malcolmvowles2368

    Only 12 ... weak on the mammals and birds outside my immediate area. Good prompt to travel more and to tune into the sounds of the bush.

    I was able to identify 9 out of 25, first I thought it was not so great, but I have changed my mind after seeing other's results. I live in California, USA, but come there quite often.😇🤗thanks for the challenge!

    Yay you are back this is just so awesome I absolutely loved the "How well do you know your bird challanges", I still listen to them almost monthly to try and identify the some of the bird calls I didnt get right.
    So super proud of hubby and myself we managed to get 15 right from this challange, some of the bird sounds got us stumped. Looking forward to the next challange 😁

    Failed miserably. identified Bushbuck alarm call as Kudu. Got hippo, lion, vervet, impala, baboon, arrow marked babbler and tropical boubou. It's been 3 years that I have been to Southern Africa. But these sounds bring back memories time spent in the bush much more intensely than any video footage. Thanks a lot.

  • @mariaj.fernandez-torres2247

    I really enjoyed this video and the challenge. I did quite badly, just 6. I was VERY surprised with the cheetah, forgot about its sound, and thought it was a bird. THANK YOU. Looking forward to the next, and next, and next

    10/25- it’s much harder mixing mammals and birds 🙈but great fun! Thanks Villiers. Keen to get back into the bush to hone these skills.

  • @andrecoetzer224
    @andrecoetzer224 Před 2 lety +1

    Just passed (13/25), but I have to say, there was no chance at all for getting more. The only real embarrassments were the bushbuck (which I confused with Kudu) and the baboon (which wasn't clear or the typical call). The others were... well... for the experienced field traveller :)

  • @micha_ela78
    @micha_ela78 Před 2 lety +1

    6 out of the 25. I'm relieved others also didn't recognize more. 😅 I got the wild dog (yesss! 😃) but thought the ostrich was a ground hornbill and I confused the vervets with baboon. The bushbuck's quite similar to the kudu, isn't it? 🙈 Thank you so much for this challenge, I'll use it to practise for my KNP/Sabi Sand trip in July this year 💪🏼🤗🍀

    • @TheSafariExpert
      @TheSafariExpert  Před 2 lety +1

      Well done on the wild dog call - not many people know that one 👏🏻😁 And yes, buskbuck and kudu alarm calls are very similar 👍🏻

    10 definitely but maybe 2 and a half extra if I can count the family but not species ie. Parrot but not the meyers, half points!?!?! 😁 Loved the 2020 challenge so this is fantastic, thank you.

    Moet erken die voel geluide moet ek aan werk. xD Die geluide is gewoonlik wat ek die meeste mis van die bos. Net om na hierdie te luister maak my reeds verlang. Nooit geweet van n sound safari nie. Sal definitief na dit kyk!

    • @TheSafariExpert
      @TheSafariExpert  Před 2 lety
