I'm beginning to think Mark's narration is my favorite part of these video clips. He makes being outside on a cold morning sound like you are seeing something very special is taking place. This was another gem.

Wonderful footage and images, only discovered your channel December 2023 also loved your laid back commentary, as a retired Falconer of 27 years I especially love raptors, I'm still an avid birdwatcher and take a few photographs but on these chilly evenings in Northern England I enjoy some good wildlife on KZfaq, thanks for your entertaining channel.

Hi Mark, Fascinating video and your commentary on wonders of nature and its contrast brought to us in the comfort of our house while you are out at odd hours in the cold. thanks. Got to admire the snowy owl at close quarters.

Beautiful Mark simply beautiful Thank you.

Stunning images and footage, great narration, magical video, thank you from an aged birder in North East England 🇬🇧

All your Videos deserve thumbs up. 👍👍👍

I was blessed to see one fly over and it's wing span was probably 4 feet wide. Also great other birds you caught on film.

You have a knack for nature story telling.

Hi Mark, Your description of bird and nature is so poetic...It elevated the observations of viewers.

Thanks for sharing I sit in wonder at the amazing photos.

Astonishing creatures, astonishing shots! Congrats!

I am artist in traditional Chinese brush painting style I have recently become a huge fan of Owls and your videos absolutely inspire me !!!

Breath taking man!

Beautiful creatures

It is a total shame that someone would steal from you. I love your clips, love the owls. I really look forward to seeing your clips. Thank you.

Oh thank you so much! I just love snowy owls. The one sitting on beach looks like a female. Females have more black markings than males. 💜🦉💜🦉

What an amazing experience! Fantastic images!! Excellent story telling!

These are gorgeous images. So inspiring

I like the face mask that you used for a Hammock, spectacular pictures

My god I really want a short ear owl ,but it is very rare specially for someone like me who lives in the middle of nowhere.That bird is one of the most beautiful animals on the planet Hope one day I will have one and thanks for the video ❤

As always Mark, great video.

Just superb thanks for sharing Mark that was really entertaining 😊

I stumbled upon your videos and am really enjoying them and your amazing photography.

Your Photography is amazing, I love to see owls flying and you captured that. Thanks.

incredible photos

Beautiful photography!

"A living work of art." Not a bad description of your own work embodied in this video. It always makes my day a little better when you publish one of your videos. Please keep up the great work.

First time here. The love you have for photography, coupled with your love for nature is a win for all of us! Thank you for sharing!

Mark, as usual i always enjoy your photography n your narrations! Look forwards for your next amazing series! -Malaysia

Absolutely stunning!

Great videoa and amazing pictures

I'm fortunate to live in an area where snowy owls congregate in the winter. I've gotten some wonderful photos of them this year. They are the only owls I've ever gotten photos of owls I've ever been able to photograph. I'm constantly on the lookout for them. Lots of hawks and eagles around here to keep me busy, and ospreys during the summer months. Loved this video. Thanks for sharing, as always!

.....fantastic..........

Very beautiful shots! Awesome and well done 👍. Excellent content as well.

Mark, beautiful pictures and great story telling as usual. Cheers

Another excellent wildlife vlog.

We have had a snowy owl camping out in central Ohio since November. I have visited it several times. Beautiful birds.

Well done. I would not mind just looking at your videos with a nice chill background music. Just a joy for my eyes.

I’m not even into bird photog and I love this chanel

Two of my favourite Owls! Beautiful!

Mark it was a pleasure seeing you in Toronto yesterday. Hope your short-eared owl images turned out well. Look forward to seeing your images.

This video is nothing less than vitamins for the soul. Wonderful!

Really enjoyed your S.E.O video we have the chance most winters to photo these fantastic owls in the u.k and it is always a treat in the dark grey months.

We visited the Short-eared Owls in our local wildlife refuge last week and enjoyed hearing their funny, sneezing calls. Such great birds!

Glad to see another video from you Mark. You never disappoint. Wonderful subjects and photographs.

Right place right time nice move to go out of your comfort zone you did amazing detail on all of these photos you go

Great video Mark. The shorties were amazing.

Youre my favorite photographer channel here in KZfaq

Mark your Channel is excellent in all ways. Despite the world-class photography, my favorite thing is the narration. I refer people to your chanel at least once a week. Thank you for your excellent efforts.

What amazing video mark. I had to watch it again.

Wow two amazing owls 🦉 in one day how incredible!

Great work Mark! always love to see your content. Glad you are able to make it up north to see the owl. :)

You are my favorite photographer; that's not a compliment I offer lightly. I also love the effort you put into your commentary. You're an inspiration. Cheers.

Had the privilege to see a Snowy Owl several years ago in Oregon. Just the sheer majesty of the bird is something to behold. Cant wait to see what you have in store for us Mark.

I love these two gorgeous owls. Your video and stills are simply gorgeous.

I really can't pick my favorite...all the photos and video are amazing. Really enjoy your channel.

Owl lands on twig tree : )) Amazing !

Stunning images indeed.

Great episode Mark! Those Snowy Owls were cool , but the Short-eared images were amazing!

Terrific Mark!!

I saw my 1st snowies at Jones Beach this winter. Your video took me back to that amazing morning.

As always Mark, your video was awesome. Instructional as well as beautiful photography of these amazing birds.

All your stuff is good

Another excellent video from Mark. Always enjoyed watching your videos. Well done!

amazing sharpness!

Thanks for a fantastic video Mark. I loved it, so glad you had a good time up there, and you’re home safe and sound. 😃

More good shots. I haven't hardly used my A9 with the 200-600 and my A7riv due to the fact my right shoulder hurts so much I was supposed to have it operated on in December but due to a 5 day stay in the Hospital over Christmas my surgery will be this week on February 25th. So with that being said I hope by the end of May to Be able to get out and use my fantastic gear. In the meantime I learn a lot from your work. Today I did notice the Eagles are back at the nest at the I 95 and Matanzas Woods exit it's in a good spot because of the elevation from the bridge. If your in the area exit the North bound exit here in Palm Coast. There is another nest in a preserve just off of Matanzas a little east of the freeway. I'm going to check it out tomorrow and also try a couple shots. I won't post them unless there good.

Outstanding images and video. And I also love your poetic narrative! You are like a fine wine !

Mark, yet another amazing video! Loved the images and the commentary, can't wait to see more. Thanks

Fantastic as always Mark. These photos are just amazing

Magical pictures! Wow!

Mark, you are a great photographer, AND a great story teller. I love your commentary for your photo trips...I always look forward to your videos!

Amazing footage all through this video, my favorite part was the shorteared owl on the tiny stick. Beautiful bird, beautifully captured!

Totally amazing. I get fired up to go chase some birds every time I watch your videos.

Fantastic images and you put them together so well in this video. Always a great day when you upload! Cheers!
