I’ve really missed these full content type videos. Glad to see another one and hope more are on the way. Shorts are great, but not nearly as satisfying as your excellent documentary style videos.
Me too!
They are so good
Just amazing narration on top of brilliant video shot! Thanks a trillion, Mark!
Same here, i was really excited to see a long form video again from Mark!
I completely agree with you. Besides the spectacular video and still photos of the long posts, the narrative is fantastic. To me, it's sheer poetry!
I watched a bunch of your shorts and this is my first watch of one of your full length videos. Absolutely stunning footage!! Great voiceover and narration and full information about these great birds!!
A channel with one million subs? That's cool
Thank you very much!
Mark, This is positively amazing, and you are a natural at storytelling!!!
Yeah finally a long video after a long long time! Please make more story telling videos Mark. Shorts are fun but this is where you really shine!
Thank you!
Agreed!
THANK YOU MARK FOR YOUR FANTASTIC DOCUMENTARY ABOUT WILD LIFE OF BIRDS IN THE SHALLOW WATERS OF FLORIDA, FOCUSING INTEREST ON THE SPECIAL ABILITIES AND PERFORMANCES OF THE OSPREYS IN THE NEST, ITS FAMILY AND THE WATERS SERCHING FOR FISHES AND DEFENGING ITS PREYS AND THEMSELVES FROM PREDATORS .
Welcome back to videoland! You've been missed!
Yes! So glad you posted again, missed your videos!
A very welcome back to your longer videos. They must be huge amounts of work but they are really appreciated for your combination of video/photography skills and your wonderful narrative. Travel safe and I am sure I am not alone in looking forward to videos from those travels.
Most of us “normal” peeps would be totally unaware of the magic of Nature surrounding us if it wasn’t for the diligent observations and superb documentation you share ! Superb 😍🤞🦅
Great images. At " that peace was harsh" she looked straight into cam. As if she said: this one i devote to you. She knows yr smell, where you are. She knows you're a good creature. She loves being admired by you. Loved her feeding chicks, including dad. He's the lazy couch-dad.
A thrilling video! Jeff and I enjoyed every minute of the film. Every bird is shown in all of its beauty and amazing abilities. We felt like we were right there in the birds’ Old Florida environment. Thanks so much for creating this gorgeous film! Fraser & Jeff
As always, your videos are incredible stories and I love watching the action unfold. Great job Mark.
Your narrative is spot on. In addition to your photographic skills you are able to bring justification to the skills of the ospreys. We should apply their tenacity to our own lives.
Mark, the very best in the World.........Poetry in Nature!
These youtubes are wonderful. Thank you.
Great seeing you back Mark. I thoroughly enjoyed this presentation. Cheers
Glad to see a new video from you, Mark.
Loved the way the anecdotes unfolded ..Mesmerizing photography of birds and their reflections...Loved the way their aquatic reflections spanned their journey over the water ..The storyteller in me loved the way the Bird tales were miniature Avian tales ..Loved the concluding capture and the golden glow...
Hello Mark, your photography is just brilliant, and equally interesting is your story-telling!! Thanks Mark 👌
The Caspian Tern had us all laughing! But, the stilts fighting was something else!
Terrific to see you posting again Mark! Great videography as usual! 👍👍📷📷
These videos are the best. So gorgeous and moving.
The Osprey mother knew that piece was too large for her baby! 😊 It's been too long since last heard from you. I wondered if you went off and got married! (well last I knew, you were engaged) I'll always love your great stories, Mark. Thanks!
Awesome video, I really enjoy it, beautiful shots and video
Beautiful shots and videos, this makes us appreciate the wild life and beautiful nature
I've seen a lot of your reels on Instagram and one of your most recent ones showed an osprey catching a salmon that appeared to be the same size as the bird. The reel ended with the osprey struggling to hang on to the fish. I was rooting for the osprey and hoping it could hold on to that fish. I headed to the comments to see if there was a comment as to if the osprey was successful. After viewing the comments about the time limit on the reels, I checked your bio to see if you had a KZhead channel to see if you had the long version used to make that Instagram reel. I ended up watching this one first but I'm going to look for the other one. You asked for comments about your work and I just wanted to take the time to post a comment. I am totally blown away with the clarity of the pictures and the motion shots. Your vocal narration is spot on and I love how you are very descriptive with the action that is happening. Def going to go watch the rest of your videos on KZhead and I subscribed because your channel is a great one to follow. I'm definitely not a photographer and even though I had a camera I bought for taking movies of my hummingbirds and my cats, I ultimately sold the camera because my previous two cell phones had better features and it was much easier to review the photos and movies. I can only imagine the amazing shots and movies I could capture of the small swarm of hummingbirds over the summer and of my my youngest cat leaping in the air during playtime and crashing into some other object in her path. For now I have to stick to using my Pixel 6 pro phone and try to mentally re-play those memories that my phone is just not able to capture. Great job by the way! Can't wait to see the rest of your videos. The pride of my KZhead experience is a single video of my cat Dexter trying to get my attention. The quality is definitely not great but the last time I checked, it had over 33,000 views. It amazes me that so many people have watched my cat that crossed the rainbow bridge a couple of years ago.
Sir good job. Love from India 🇮🇳
Probably your best vid to date. Excellent view of the nest activity.
Thanks!
Wow... I love the natural season😮
Марк! Вы супер! Спасибо! ❤❤❤
You are truly magnificent. You might even make the Osprey surpass the RTH as my favorite hawk. These guys are simply breath taking. Please make a documentary. I’m obsessed.
Hi Mark from France 🇫🇷 . That video is just amazing such and outstanding one!!!
I love the narration as much as the photography, thanks Mark
Awesome images and amazing to see the Ospreys pluck the fish off the surface and fly off as opposed to the usual splashdown.
Kudos to your son who told you to go on KZhead with your photography in the beginning of this site! I can't put into words how much I enjoy your work! LOVE the female osprey who looked at you directly when you pointed out "that bite was for her"......epic stare!
Yes, he knew something I didn’t. I thank him everyday. Yeah, she gave me the look a few times!
You've captured two of my favorite birds in one video: the osprey and black-necked stilt!!! Thanks so much! 😃🤗
Once again wonderful narration and truely astonishing footage! The best bird footage on the internet, bar none!
Thanks
Really happy to see your content yet again ❤
After a long time! New look as well! :)
A great video as usual Mark! I look forward to seeing you and bald eagles in Canada in June
A melhor de todas.
I follow you for quite some time and I can tell you, that your fotos and movies are amongst the best about birds that I've ever seen. And your comments are as interesting as they are funny. Thanks a lot. Greetings from Switzerland
Missing your videos. They are awesome.
Wow Mark. Not only is your photography from heaven, but your stories to listen and explaining what is happening is great. Five star!!!! I also love taking photos of birds. Still not close to what you are doing but enjoying our feather friends in our garden for now. I need to get the A7R4 with the right lense sooner than later! Keep on doing what you are doing. We all love to see.
Thanks for all you do!
آپ کا شاندار کام بہت اچھا ہے تمام دوستو اور اسے جاری رکھیں
Amezing Love to see and enjoying 👍🏻
I am so glad and appreciative of longer video and not the short ones. I mean reason I like your KZhead channel is because of the story that you provide. Thank you.
Great video Mark, it is so good to see you back with a longer video. I've really enjoyed the shorts but your longer videos and narration are second to none. Keep them coming and thanks so much for sharing your experiences!!
Hi Mark, so nice to see some of your usual super cool shots and nice narration video. I must say I definitely prefer this over the « shorts» hype of KZhead. Happy to hear you will be here and there and enjoy what you like and do very well, take epic birds shots and share a piece with us. Cheers
MArk - a geat video and shows the beautiful birds and you exceptional techniqe. Really enjoyed this one epdecially the dtail in the stills.
The 600mm and the Alpha 1, what more can you ask for, a Osprey, for sure, had them in Poland this year, but Florida would just be amazing.
Awesome video. My favorite part is the whole video. 😊
Wow amazing...😊 great job
I have this 2x tc now and I have photographed with it and Sony fe 300mm 2,8 for one week. I must say IQ with my 33 mpix a7C ll is excellent ,super sharp and good colors. The best results with 2x TC I have ever had ,as if there is no extender at all. Also AF is fantastic with my body ,it focuses on birds eye rapidly in most situations -so the new A1 chip works well. So this lightweight lens is well suited for wildlife too -not only sports photography. Cheers
GFBSA... Great to see that you never abandoned posting these great videos. Best regards Tim
Nope, they just take time.
We mossed those longer videos, thank you so much for sharing, amazing work as usual!!
Spectacular every second of it.
Well done Mark amazing photography as usual. Thank you for sharing.
We all know you have to leverage your time toward the activities that pay the bills but, man... sure do this miss these old school videos. Good stuff, Mark! Hope you're well!
Your photography is absolutely out of this world! I love how you can see as soon as they hit the fish their nictitating membranes close to protect their eyes from the spray of water.
Soooooooo goooooood!
What amazing photos!!! The osprey is one of my favourite bird of prey, with the golden eagle and the peregrine falcon, and fortunately it's easier to photograph over here.
I live in Minnesota by lake Minnetonka I have osprey nesting in platforms put up just for the osprey to nest. I watch as the babies get fed and grow up and take there first flight, it's awesome to see them grab fish and go to the nest and feed the babies. Only problem is I don't have as good of a camera and Len's as you do, but I do get some great pictures.
Incredible images of low angle Osprey dives Mark!
Hi Mark thank you very much for all your videos they are both clear and magical to watch. Just viewed your latest short clip videos of the owl and osprey both wonderful. Thanks again.
So glad to see one of your awesome videos and photos again we missed seeing them thanks so much 😊
Fantastic video and great commentary! Love all the wonderful shots!
More stories like this please!

Cool to see you supporting other photographers too with Nick's hat. Amazing work as usual Mark.

Wow! Just wow! Love your videos and photos. ❤

Saludos Mark Smith ... gracias por tus excelentes videos y fotos del águila pescadora. 🇵🇪
Amazing pictures and video, as always!
The last video showing how the ruthless pelican tried to endeavour the osprey was suspenseful.
Great video, Mark! Love these longer videos more than the shorts. I know how much time and effort they take, but I’ve missed them and your wonderful story telling. May I have some more PLEASE?!
Mark..... What an amazing video....... Super quality...... Beautiful content...... ❤ from India......
Quite brilliant Mark 👏👏👏
Beautiful...
Another amazing video! Thanks Mark!
Always great Mark!
That was amazing.....
Fun video! Nice to see you back with these longer films! Hopefully that red shirt makes it to your shop 😅. Thanks for sharing!
Awesome content... you're the best!
It is very hard to pick a favorite. You do such a fantastic job of taking video and photo's. But what really adds to the story is how you tell the story. You are fascinating.
That Bass was suffering with that sharp beak in the eye. 😬
Great video Mike particularly liked the Black winged Stilt fight . You are so close to the action 👍
Awesome video and still images Mark. I would be very interested in joining you on that workshop next Spring. Chris Hinckley
