Nightingale ( Luscinia megarhynchos )

Exactly a year on from my visit to Paxton pits I was lucky enough again to find and record this beautiful sounding bird in a more cleaner shot than the last visit, armed with better knowledge of my equipment and a more directional microphone, I hope you enjoy its song.

Excellent shot. I was wondering what those plastic rings are on the feet of the nightingale.

@wildaboutimages Thanks for the information. I was showing it to my dad and he loved the video, especially the song of the bird. He even asked me to record the audio just for his listening pleasure :). Can I download your videos/audios from somewhere? If not, is it okay with you if I download it with third-party software and save it in my phone or similar devices for enjoyment, strictly non-commercial? I ask your because I respect your skills and your passion. :)

Fascinating and adorable at the same time, how this little fellow is conveying his message in a song. Thank you for this excellent, high quality footage!

Everyday I'm Nightinglin'

Sean, this nightingale sound is one of the most endearing and beautiful sounds I have ever heard. What a great job capturing this wonderful moment!!

I step into your channel everyday now just to hear this sound.

My friend Gabor (robag71, below) told me the other day to listen to Chopin's music I was featuring with this sound. That was absolutely wonderful!! The piano and this sound go perfect together. ~~Kumhui
