In this video I am trying to find a beautiful shorebird called purple sandpiper. They are migrating from the arctic in the wintertime. Its my first time seeing and photographing this bird. I did not expect to find them so quickly. I had a wonderful time photographing and filming them. Hope you enjoy the this.
I wish everybody a great holiday.

Again a nice and convincing video. You can see the passion for wildlife photography. That inspires me too. Thank you.
Great stuff trond ♥️
Great video Trond. At 6:10 it looks like you've got a Ruddy Turnstone there with the Purple Sandpipers. Nice work.
Lovely shots, the lighting in some is superb on the birds.
Very nice video!

Dude your videos are getting so good!😃 loving it, and those were some sweet shots 🙌
I must be honest, I held my breath when you had the drone over top of the birds. I don't know if you were too close or not, or if they were bothered. I hope not. Personally I have a no drone at all in any circumstance around wildlife policy.
I loved the video and stills. And the landscape drone shots.
Another brilliant wildlife video Trond, yes the purple sandpiper is a beautiful sea bird, we have a lot of them stopping over on Hilbre Island on the Dee Estuary, here in the uk, just for the winter months.
Terrific as always Trond 👌🏻
Very nice images of a stunning looking bird.
Have a wonderful Christmas however you spend it.
Looking forward to your next vlog.
Peace
Linden
isn't it better to use a tripod in this situation?
