Wild Diaries with Ben Waddams - My Favourite British Bird

Many people think that, here in the UK (and indeed, Europe) our smallest bird is the Wren. In fact there are 2 birds smaller even than this tiny character. In second place, the Firecrest and 1st?... you'll have to watch and see! Enjoy,
Ben

I know how hard they are to film! I was at the Wrekin last month when i stubled upon a group of them, i got my camera out but they just wouldn't stop moving! They are rather unusual in that even though they are fairly tame/not bother by people too much they are still increadibly hard to film! - I have left you a responce i think(If it's worked) of some water vole footage i took a couple of years ago at the Wombrook in Wombourne.

@MRDTMEDIA Thanks mate. I can film anything on the Wrekin. Whenever I go up, it's blowing a gale!

Your water vole clip is great, thanks for sharing.

I f thats meant to be a take on David Attenborough then I think you have done it very well.

A nice bit of filming too.

Well done.

@steveavery77 Thank you, however it is not meant to be a take on David Attenborough. I suppose it is a take on his way with words - I find that the emphasis he puts on words makes it much easier for people to understand the points he is trying to make - hence why I do it, but it is not meant to be an impression. Thank you for your comment,

Ben
